Is the Kindle 'Fire' able to make/receive calls?

Just received my Kindle 'Fire'...I fly ALOT and just wondered if I can use this as a sub for my cellphone? Thank you for all your help.

Update:

Should've been filed under pda's/handhelds.

    Neither the Kindle Fire, nor the Nook Tablet can replace your cell phone. They have speakers, but no microphone. Guess you would listen, but not talk!

    i might get an android telephone beacause it has lots extra function and apps. the only plus the kindle fire has is this is cost and the actuality this is an ereader whether it has an 8gb inner storage without expandable memory.
