Does this have to be tied in to a telephone account?

No it does not. My son has had this for almost 2 years now and still loves it.

No. This is a tablet only which has wifi capability but no other wireless service (telephony, bluetooth or otherwise). If you've used Google Play you can associate the device your current account for adding apps and games and the like or you can create a new account for that.

No it needs to connect via USB to a computer There is also a set up process through the computer I assume wouldn't be possible with a phone

No you need to have a VOIP service such as Ringcentral or Jive communications.

Yes. It connects from the handset to the telephone "base." It was a bit expensive, a few years ago they were widely available for like $4; but I am happy with it.

No, it is just a telephone. It was connected to my landline at first. Now it is connected to my FIOS service.

Yes, but after you receive it, you have to contact ring central tech support with the phone model etc. And they "activate" use of the phone on your account, can't just plug it in.

Not sure what you are asking. However, the minutes you have on your phone are connected to the phone number. If you get a new phone, you can transfer your phone number and minutes to that new or other phone. If you purchase minutes you can either add those minutes to which ever phone (not phones) you wish. If your phone has double or triple minutes for life, this refers to your phone, not phone number.

If it is a prepaid you can. It won't work with a regular account unless you have had the prepaid phone active for a year. i like this phone but it is a prepaid account .

I dont see why it wouldnt but you must have cell phone service from someone

it has a port on side where you connect phone line like on a traditional phone.so you probably have to have a landline

No, you have to activate some kind of service plan to have a phone # assigned.

Yes you need a subscription in order for it to upload the data. The app on the phone will auto sign in so you can't just link it to the phone and forget about the subscription. If you need a referral for the discount let me know.

It does need a dedicated phone line. The way around it is to use one of those little splitters. Plug it into your phone jack, then use one for the phone line, another one for the faxes. Or you can install an extra phone jack next to the existing one (if you know how).

No. It's a regular phone that you would get at the store when opening an account.

Not for the basic system. You only need a phone line if you want to use the system to call you or someone else should a break in occur.

No it doesn't. You will need to set up an account with a voip provider which you will enter in on this box. You can think of this as a router for your phone. I have found by buying this and setting up an account is very much cheaper ( less than 1/2 ) than something like Vontage ( which is the same thing except they have done the configuration for you).
