Tablets that can be used like a phone
Are there any tablets folks have used that work like a phone to make and receive phone calls. Not talking about voip whatsapp or Hang outs or Skype. Basically an LTE device fully functional wit...
Ah. That's kinda tricky because when we set up the tablets, the lines are created with plans that do not have voice capability included. So, even with a pre-installed or downloaded dialing app, trying to call from the tablet will result in an error message.

It's what they want. That's what they code for. If you have a problem with it take it up with them. As they specifically pointed out Tabs can't make phones calls all around the world not just in the USA, but you can use their built in service if you have their phone. Their own knowledge base says exactly this.
