When I receive incoming calls from family abroad and stateside simultaneously with Vonage and a landline I want to conference them. I need a phone or conference call box or telephone which can hook up two incoming lines. It would be great if it would hang up both lines when they finish talking. Any ideas?

What kind of a budget are you looking at, and what are you using as your devices (i.e. Telephone, Adapter, wiring)...
If this is for a buisness, maybe a basic PBX system might just do the trick for you...

I've got a $60 GE 2line speakerphone from Office Depot that allows you to conference the two lines and it hangs up both when you hang up. I think you'll find most 2line phones do the same if you're the one handling the conferencing.

After re-reading the post, that is going to be the easiest way to do that... I wonder if I was even reading it right last night...
