Hi. I'd avoid going the land line route all together if it were me. It would work using Skype and a bluetooth headset. Another option would be to use magic jack and a mac book air for example, or, what about a Skype phone? That could also have a dedicated number like magic jack would... All of those options would be cheaper than a second land line.
