There is no point in having a PBX in the end device. You aren't going
to switch 20 calls through your handset simultaneously and you don't
have enough bandwidth to do it even if you're silly enough to desire
it. The phone also isn't going to be on all the time, or on the
network at all times.

If you want that, use a software PBX server in a closet on a proper
UPS with a stable connection to the PSTN and/or Internet. There is no
point to PBX functionality on the *phone*. If you want to record the
conversation, you can do it on a box with plenty of CPU, disk, etc.,
not on the phone.
