Nokia made the Premicell years ago and it does exactly what you
describe. They have now replaced it with the Nokia 22 and Nokia 32:

It's as simple (ahem) as buying a SIM card and linking the Nokia box to
your PBX. I set one up so we had Orange to Orange rates when calling our
salesforce as opposed to BT to Orange rates.

If you need any more information, drop me a line.
