Can you still get pocket pager service?

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

Can you still get pocket pager service?

Post by StevenDilley »

Hello friends,

I don't want to a cell phone because I don't want to talk to anyone, but those old Motorola pagers had awesome vibrators.

Thanks a lot

Wikipedia says "yes", but this is definitely the wrong place to ask.

You could also get a smartphone on a data-only plan and use an instant messaging client. But this can be expensive - I'm paying $25/m for 2GB/m of wireless data on my phone. I use Skype for calls (less than $10/m for Skype premium, a Skype-in number, and unlimited calls to Australia and the U.S.).
