I may be missing something here, but I'll make this suggestion just in 
case you haven't already considered it.

Have your phone register multiple call appearances with the same DN. For 
instance, my 7960 has three appearances of "2205". Calls are 
automatically offered to the first available appearance, kind of like 
what you'd expect. I think this is the behavior you're looking for, but 
you may be trying to do it he hard way.

Cheers,

Brian
