No matter where I live, it always seems that I don't have good mobile phone reception. All I want is to be able to take calls that ring in on my mobile, which is my main business line, without having to stand in the corner, on tiptoes, and have to apologize to clients when they can't hear me or the call is dropped. Is that so much to ask? Hey, why don't I get those calls to ring through on my landline handset? That would be a great solution. Not so fast!

Yeah, I realize this isn't necessarily the solution...

It's kind of neat, although when I used it last, the performance was still sub-par what I had hoped (slight amount of latency).
Edit: Oh, i see it was even mentioned lower in the review (my bad!)

Give out your landline as your primary number and use Trixbox to route all incoming calls to your cell when you are out of the house.
I have set up several Trixboxes for area businesses and they all worked wonderfully.

There are free and paid "support" versions. I always use the Community Edition personally since I have never needed the support personally.
