Where is >one available? There's a device in the most recent DAK catalogue (I don't have it handy, but you can call 800 information for their number) which looks like a standard rj-11 y-connector, but with 2 leds on top. One jack is a priority jack, lifting anything on that line will kill anything on the other, and the other is blocked if the priority circuit is in use. I believe it was under $15 for this unit. They're primarily selling it for use with answering machines (pick up the phone, machine is disconnected from line) but mention these other uses..
