Using two phones for the same number.

Here is what I want to do, and I need to know if it is possible.

I am on sprint, and I have an A500 now. I used to use a Motorola 8767, and I had a neat device for it called an AirPal. That company seems to be out of business, but there is a similar company, CellSocket (www.cellsocket.com) that seems to do the same thing.

Anyway, what I would like to do is set up my motorolla so that it thinks it is my A500. So if a phone call comes in, both phones will ring, and I can also pick up the Motorola and make a phone call.

I realize that this could be "skirting" on some legal issues that you may not want to address on this forum. If that is the case, please let me know, but my primary question is:

Is this even possible?

If it is possible I will continue my research until I can figure it out, but if it is impossible for technical reasons, then I won't continue to waste my time and I will just sell the stuff off on ebay.

Thanks for the help

Not possible.

I know all of us with multiple phones would love to be able to do this but unfortunately it can not be done.

The only possible way to do this might be with a GSM phone where you could somehow copy your SIM card (obviouly not legal) and then use two SIMs with the same number in your two phones. With the precautions the cell phone providers take today to prevent number cloning, I'm not even sure if this is possible.
