Its paired with the Bluetooth from the base station, not the handset.

RE: Integrating Home And Mobile Phone
My Panasonic cordless phone set offers this feature. They call it link to cell. It actually worked quite well the last time I tried it. Range was OK, but not great. Voice quality was excellent. There are several Panasonic cordless models that offer this feature. It will support up to 2 cell phones.

RE: Integrating Home And Mobile Phone
I haven't used my iPhone with my landline but the manual says it is possible. I have used myhearing aid neckloop with the landline phone and it is great no to have to run for the phone on my desk.

I’m very much looking forward to hearing about a new Cordless phone from Vtech a friend of mine has just purchased. One of its many features is the ability to allow the user to make and receive calls using a mobile handset from anywhere in the house using Bluetooth, I’ve no reason not to believe that the system will work just as well with an Android phone as it would with an iPhone. The suspense is killing me so in order to try and relax a little, I thought I’d ask if anyone here has used such a phone system and how did they find it? The nearest thing to this I’ve used is the FaceTime system on a Mac with an iPhone where you can place/answer calls from your Mac’s keyboard and “Talk away!” ** Those of a positive and enquiring frame of mind will leave the rest of the halfwits in this world behind.

I don't have this phone, but I'd be curious how it works to integrate with a phone call coming in on a land-line to the cordless hand-set, then handed off to a mobile phone of the Android or IOS variety, which has a totally different phone number. I know you are supposing that this will work via bluetooth, but it seems rather strange to me, and unless there is some sort of means of remotely answering, i.e. the cordless unit rings halfway across the house, and you can't get there, but you have your mobile phone on you and can thus answer that call, I don't see the point.
