Hi Nick

Have you considered using CPE DSL routers with VoIP and FXP analog out? Decentralized. That's what everyone are doing here. Might be free depending on where you get the CPEs.

Or simply getting VoIP handsets. Lots of cheap DECT bases with VoIP.

The big issue here is battery backup. Being in Northern California these days, this isn't an academic problem anymore. One of the neat things I discovered about this new fangled dslam/pots termination is that they can get battery backup from the CO using legacy twisted pairs.
