Just put a suitable set of commands in your Dial string in  
extensions.conf

Say:
	Dial(Sip/work&Zap/g1/01612370660&Zap/g1/079000000,30)

Which dials  the local Sip, the phone PSTN number and a mobile,  
whoever answers first
gets the call. (rings for up to 60 secs). The only problem is if the  
mobile is off
and goes straight to answerphone, that will always answer first.
Personally for mobiles I prefer to use sms for notification and voice  
for office/home.
