As everyone has pointed out, WiFi and cellular DATA iPads do not make cellular phone calls on their own.


Sorry.


To use an iPad to make cellular phone calls and to send SMS text messages, you need to have a iPhone that the iPad is tethered to that acts a remote call and SMS text messaging device linked to an iPhone.
