I personally wouldn't want a server on the phone.  I would rather log 
into a separate SIP/IAX server that could give access to land lines as 
well as SIP VOIP lines.  I was trying to extend the post I replied to & 
gather more suggestions for SIP client software because I didn't 
understand why an entire server was needed.

Agreed, as I said above.  Still, I do prefer the idea of using a 
SIP-provider instead of IP2IP purely for the purpose of calling land lines.
