Most won't...at least not for while. T-Mobile is the only offer
available right now...simply because they're the only cellular carrier
not also in some way in the land line business. It's a way for them to
accellerate the trend of people dropping land lines in favour of only
cellular service.

If I could get my Asterisk server to mimic the wifi phone then it would
be an ideal way of providing 911 and 411 service to my home.
