Yes, the iPhone is indeed a phone and as with any other cell phone it needs a network to call and text. The iPhone is on AT&T, the phone network that works with the iPhone. The iPhone currently does not have any other network/cell provider.
Cell phone rentals are very common for people who are traveling abroad, and for people who only need a temporary replacement for a cell phone. Concerning those traveling abroad, sometimes your provider doesn't provide service out of the country your phone is in. This is largely in part with what type of network your cell phone uses. If your network doesn't allow you to travel out of the country, you may ask your service provider if they have any other options for you. If not, check with other cell phone companies that will be able to accommodate you.
you can get texting on your itouch, it just costs more. there's an app for the itouch that lets you get 15 free texts a day. i think you can turn your itouch into a phone....but you definitely need to pay more to be able to call people on it.
You will need another AT&T cell phone are a compatible GSM cell phone.
Go to settings, wifi, and under choose a network, select one. If it has a lock beside it, you need a password. settings>Wi-Fi>choose a network

The time on your cell phone is set by the network, so when the network time adjusts for daylight savings so does your cell.
Yes and no. You'll be limited by hardware from connecting via the cell towers, but if you are connected over WiFi you can use VoIP apps such as Skype to make phone calls. You will need a set of headphones with in line Mic or similar hardware to be heard.

No, you don't need a cell phone number to receive email
