Sounds like you already have phones that match your users needs, only they are connected to your old PBX. Have you looked at using a gateway to connect your legacy digital handsets to Asterisk? Then you can leave the existing phones and wiring in place and still upgrade to an Asterisk-based solution. Try Googling for 'sip handset gateway'.
