Not for ISPs, IMHO.  Those modems require the ISP to have a similar one on
their end to answer both phone lines on the same device.

It's much smarter to connect two normal modems to a users computer then use
multi-link ppp or another form of load balancing over the modems which most
terminal servers on the ISP end will support on any of their ports.
