Most of the affordable cell backups are specifically designed to deal with
standard CS signaling.  Telguard does manufacture some (very expensive) cell
backups that will work on an analog cell network on the voice channels and
provide functionally the same srevices as a landline.  The equipment is
expensive, and the service is expensive.

If you buy your equipment outright you can probably have it monitored
including cell service for about the same amount (or less) using your
landline for your primary communications and a modern contral channel unit
for your cell backup.  If you want to save on the cost of a landline (not
have one at all) and use your cell for all communications the cell service
will be slightly more, but the difference will probably be less than the
cost of the landline.  This is using a modern cell backup that uses the data
control chanel of cellular.

I'll leave it to others to tear up the rest of your post.
