Also note that in many places (USA) the ISDN service is used for the
disabled (deaf / mute) communication systems.  There may be devices in
this industry that fit your needs.

<evil>So if you live in a very low population area and need to improve
your pots service just request an ADA (Americans with Disability Act)
ISDN line.  This will force the telco to wake up and run better
service (new copper/fiber depending on the buildout law) and you do
not have to prove you are disabled.</evil>
