FXO is easy, but FXS is more expensive.  You'll likely need two cards 
(one for each).  You can get $10 FXO cards on ebay, but something seems 
to be buggy as heck with those.  I have problems with them nearly daily 
which requires reboots.

You could try finding an Internet Phonejack (I think that's the FXS 
one).  I bought one a while ago and it wasn't too expensive (compared to 
the Digium stuff).  Not sure if the company exists any more.
