I don't know if this would help, but the temporary deactivation of call
waiting is a free service in several states (Minnesota, for sure).  Try
writing your state regulatory commission (ours is call Public Utilities
Commission) to find out why it's not bundled with call waiting.  If enough
people complained, they might make the phone company stop charging extra
for it, especially if it's a freebie elsewhere.
