Default BT Home Hub Phone

I'm thinking of swapping the home hub for a more reliable unit, but would like to keep the us of the hub phone for the free calls, does anyone know if this will work with any other ADSL wireless router?

I would imagine all the router would need is a VOIP port so you can just use normal DECT phones and not the ****e BT supply you with.
