yes, I have a cell phone that we use for our home phone, it pairs with the base station via Bluetooth. The set works fine.

I honestly haven't tried that, but I don't see why not - since it allows you to select whether to make an outgoing call via a land line or cell and the cell incoming calls come in on the set directly, if they are properly paired via Bluetooth. I've used both the Blackberry and iPhone pairing - both work, both allow access to the cell phone's phonebook. One thing to know though - it doesn't read the Cell, Home or other type of numbers, seeing them the same instead, i.e. listing them all without any differentiation... Hope that helps.

Don't know? I dropped my land line and went with the Verizon wireless box, which operates as a land line,rings and receives cell phone calls coming in without having to run around looking for your cell phone , costs about $22.00 a month.

No, unless it is in use. You can use your phone as you would regularly with the FA plugged into the line. When the FA button gets pushed and the call goes out, it may be unavailable for that short time. It really operates smoothly.

Yes you can. Its just called a prepaid phone because it doesnt come with a contract

Thats correct. You can not use the device with a landline to make an outgoing call.

It's not necessary, but in order to have full functionality, it will need to be connected to the internet via wi-fi. Without a wi-fi connection, you will only be able to make & receive calls & texts and use offline apps (like games).

Nope, but as another individual stated, if you have the resources you can convert your cell phone into a hotspot to get the connectivity you want. Actually had to do this when I moved -- the connectivity in the hotel was garbage and wasn't secured. Using my cell worked out well, but cost me a bit more per month.

Yes, it will work without a telephone line. However, it has no way of messaging you via wireless or cellular. It would be like a car alarm that will alert you.

No this phone does not require a telephone system or internet. You plug it into a standard phone line just like you would any other land phone.

Yes of course it's works without land line, but you won't receive calls to your land line on this device in this case

Answer to the question "Can this be used without a data plan": Yes. I used it for two years with no data plans. It comes with a wifi to allow you connecting to the internet when wifi is available.

Well, yes, if you want to use internet on a go. And, no, if you intend to use only calling/texting. And, of course, there's wi-fi which is mostly free :)
