The house I lived in as an undergrad just did renovations, and now each of the rooms has two cat5 RJ45 jacks. One is 10mbit Ethernet, the other is phone; you can plug a normal RJ11 phone cable into it for lines 1-2, or use a magic splitter cable to get lines 1-2 and lines 3-4 on separate RJ11 plugs. More practical if you have more than two voice lines in your house, though.
