I have 4 cordless DECT phones with answer machine and caller ID on my landline.
I also have a mobile phone.
If I get rid of my landline is there any way I can use the DECT phones with my mobile number while in the house?

    No.  They're designed for landline use only.
    You may be able to port/forward the landline number at the exchange to a mobile number but you still wouldn't be able to use the cordless phones.

    If you get rid of your landline are you happy to use your mobile data for all your Internet activity?
