can I just buy the handset?

No, but they'll send a whole new phone. We got our second one, but the static on it still renders it only a decorative item at this point. We really wasted money with this one.

By the way, you can purchase a set which includes the home base and several handsets.

No, this is just the handset, there is no where to plug the phone line into. You need the base.

If you "shop around" on various Amazon sites, probably you will find some deal that sends more handsets with the first purchase of your base unit and handsets. Adding more handset after your original purchase is more than a one step process. Each base set is preprogrammed to work with the set of handsets that come with the original purchase (base set & handsets). In order to add new handsets to your original base set you will need to follow the exact instructions that came with your original purchase. Then the added handsets will be programmed to your base unit. Yes, keep those instructions. I strongly suggest that you just buy more handsets with the original purchase. My memory isn't clear about the various units I shopped, but it seems that six handsets were offered with one deal. Good luck. BM

Yes you can. I highly recommend that nobody buy this phone though. It is terrible for so many reasons.

I'm sorry, how do you think you get service? You can leave a handset on the base to answer from it....

You should ask the specific seller that is offering the phone. That seller is the only one who will be able to answer those two questions. If they can't answer either, then I would ASSUME no.

Yes you can do that. I used AT&T; phone before buying this phone and l have no problem with it.

I haven't done any real research on that but it seem that is not possible. As the "connection" of the handset to the Internet or your standard line is made wireless to a base, which cannot be accesed by software... I understand your question but i'm not sure about the possibility of using a different handset... at least you can use a "headset" as it have standard plug for that on the phone :P

To the best of my knowledge the handset is specifically designed with the matching handset and not any other type. I am not aware that they could be bought separately. If you have a different handset with it's own base, yes they will work together, but NOT INTERCHAGABLY.

You can. But the Bluetooth connection is not always great, while the phone will ring everywhere you have a handset if you answer you may not have a good connection.

You can but. Screen is too small and not very sharp. I wouldn't recommend this phone.

Yes you can buy them anywhere they sell Tracfones. I usually buy them on line.

No. If the phone you have now has a Sims card you can insert it in this phone or purchase one.

You can purchase the replacement handset. The instructions will tell you how to proceed.

I've purchased 4 of these units along with several other handsets from a variety of vendors. I have yet to see the option to purchase the receiver separate from a handset.

You have the option of silencing just the base, or just the handset, or both. You can select on your own
