Not per se, but you can use Facetime Voice or Skype.

You can use Skype or another VoIP app over your cellular or WiFi
connection.

Not a chance. In the Doctor Who newsgroups that fool is called "The
Dimbulb Doctor", "The Doofus Doctor", "The Dumbass Doctor", and "Yads"
(Yet Another Dozy Sod). He can't even manage to string a comprehensible
sentence together nor understand any answers, let alone work out any
answers himself. He's a looney tune with a pile of complete nutter
theories that makes up all kinds of utter garbage none of which he can
prove any of it.

Not to mention that anyone who doesn't believe the same wacko-brand of
religious "Christain" lunacy that he has mostly made up himself is
labelled a "communist".

Best just to killfile the nutcase and ignore him.

Your Name the insane decides to make a n appearance.

So the answer is Ipad cannot be a standlaone voice cell 
device unless you have VOIP technology.

I don't know what an Ipad is, but what you wrote is true of an iPad.

Like me. When I cannot get a connection from my mobile (with a prepaid 
connection from a reasonably major supplier but not the biggest and 
most established) in the bush here, I can often get a connection from 
my iPad, which is connected by the biggest and most established 
Australian supplier (Telstra) with towers all over the show. Plus 
often it is much cheaper to use the VOIP on the iPad. 

I use a free softphone from Zoiper, It is not great software for iPad, 
but it works well enough. Anyone use better?
