Think the FXS is a Foreign Exchange interface intended to tie a ser-accessible gateway to a telephone/pbx line (not to a telephone instrument).
I always thought that was FXO but I periodically confuse these two abbreviations. Anyway, if folks want to have a low-cost analog-line gateway, the cheapest I'm aware of are ~1000+ with four analog ports. That's audiocodes and allied telesyn -- I never tested them though and my hand-waving guess is that these products still need to mature.
If anyone is aware of an affordable PSTN gateway, let me know.
