This is a very interesting discussion and I never knew about "Call 
Monitoring".

In my situation I am looking for something a little different - the 
ability to "barge" into a call.

Frequently my wife gets a call (usually downstairs) and wants me to join 
in (I'm usually in my office upstairs).  She invites me by intercom but 
I don't know how to join in except going downstairs and listening on the 
speakerphone (Grandstream GXP-2000).
