[BBLISA] Recommendations for/against paging services?

[Edward Ned Harvey]

This might not be quite what you're looking for, but what I use is email to
the phone.  Nearly every mobile phone allows you to receive email there.

I know that t-mobile is like this:
	7815551234 at tmomail.net

Nobody can remember that (including me) so I just create a forwarding alias,
pager -at- mydomain.com, which gets emails to my cell phone whenever there's
an emergency of some kind.

I may need to find a paging service provider. At a minimum I need
alphanumeric paging; if they would rent me a pager at a reasonable price
that would be even better. Local coverage (everything east of 413 area
code) is probably all I need but if they offered nationwide for not too much
more I'd consider it. I don't need 2-way paging, but so-called "1.5-way"
(outgoing messages only, but the pager send an ACK so the system knows the
message was received) would be better.

Any have a service they like or don't like?

Thanks,
AdamM

P.S. - No, SMS to my cell phone is not an option.

P.P.S. - Yes, I actually do want a pager that's physically separate
	 from my phone/PDA/watch/laptop/puppy/etc.
