Jag,

We use a Rogers (Sprint) business line and have call forward on busy activated 
for an additional monthly fee of $4. We don't have any other "features" bundled 
with the line.

One other thing to keep in mind if you use this feature - if the line is busy 
and a fax comes in, the fax will be forwarded to the VoIP line. I believe there 
are still major issues surrounding receiving faxes over VoIP.
