can you receive calls while the device is connected on the dock or using Skype for example?

Yes, you can answer the phone when it's plugged into the iHome station and you can even answer calls if music is playing through the iHome station. Once a call is answered you can put the phone into speaker mode and talk/listen through the iHome station. I just tested these scenarios and it worked well.

Yes you can call when connected to internet. But not sure of the quality of the service as it depends on the internet bandwidth

You can if you use Skype. Otherwise no, tablets in US do not make conventional phone calls.

This is the Wifi version, you can't make calls if you mean by that phone calls. But if you mean Skype and others by 'making a call' then yes you can.

Yes, I have used this very setup on a Skype call. Just make sure Skype is configured to use the Shure mic and headphones for output.

Your phone will ring with either incoming land or Skype calls. You can choose how to make outgoing calls in the setup. Be advised that, in my case at least, I lost call display on my incoming land line calls using this device. Support claimed it should work in my area (Canada using Bell as a provider). It didn't. They even replaced the unit but no luck.

It has this option, but I have not tried it myself. On my previous phones, the "skype feature" works, it is just very small. I would use a computer vs. a phone.

You are able to use the devices while they are charging. Not entirely sure about conversation, but able to use internet and apps

You can connect it and talk/listen using the headset but you still need the handset to open/close the call. So it is not a "full" solution.

Not exactly sure if device itself has a mute feature, but if you mute the call using mute option on device, you should achieve desired result

It requires another piece to be bluetooth capable. However, it might be able to make and receive calls while docked (seeing as it's an iphone), I'm not sure.

No. My phone utilizes VOIP. When a 2nd call comes in there is a brief interruption in the connection.

Yes, of course. You can pick up a phone call by short pressing and hang up by long pressing. But please be certain that you device is paired with it properly.

No, the magic jack only has to be hooked up to the modem. If the modem is functioning properly, you can make calls.

Yes you can. However this device is not very good. It's extremely low, very difficult to hear, as well as unclear. You are able to listen to music, and talk it pauses the music when there is communication. I do not recommend this device though in general.

You need to take off any covers to use the dock . Otherwise you will not make good connection. Hopethis helps you out.

I have been using the unit for about a year . You can access a VOIP OR Landline but I have not found a way to bridge the two calls together
