Is anyone aware of a cradle, a patch cord, or device that one could use to plug into your cell phone and have your home telephone system use your cell phone.
I know they exist as I have a magic black box I bought years ago from Cingular that hooks into my car phone and allows me to use my laptop modem. It basically produces a fake dial tone and fools the modem into thinking its a land line.
I have that working in my hangar on a car phone that has been hooked up to a 12VDC power supply and trucker antenna. The magic box is connected in-line with the car phone. I have a regular Radio Shack 6-port RJ11 adapter hooked to the magic box and I have three very normal everyday touch-tone phones hooked up to this magic box. Each phone can receive calls (the damn things even ring) or make calls.
I want to be able to do the same thing with my Motorola T720. Just come one, plug it into a cradle and 'Presto", my girfriend calls my cell phone and I can answer the call on my kitchen or bedroom telephone.
Anybody aware of such a magical device for a T720? How about any other kind of cell phone.

You can find dealers and various articles if you search the product names.
Unfortunately, these do not appear to work with most modems, fax machines, satellite boxes, and I think alarm systems (since they use modems). I was really wanting to ditch my land line but I have a fax machine and an alarm system.
Good luck and let me know how they work if you purchase one.
