I bought the Obi110 when it was on sale for only $20 5 years ago. Before that, my monthly landline bill was almost $90. After I got the Obi110, my monthly bill went to $0. Have been very happy with the service 100%. The only thing extra that I have to pay is international call, but Google Voice int'l rates are extremely reasonable.
Because all that gets you is a single phone line without any of the extras that a fully-switched system can perform.

I'm not aware of anything specifically designed to do what you want.
