Enjoy it while it lasts. Just be thankful that you have phones as powerful as the EVO at your disposal at such a young age.
Back when I was your age (can't believe I'm about to age myself), people were just clamoring to get the smallest pager or coolest looking one.
Yeah, I remember going to grab a clear case for my "sky pager", lol. Instead of send me a text, it was send me a page, hahaha!
Stop blowing up my pager
4311 435. 869312 7357
(For those that are too young, this is pager writing. Translation: "Hell Yes. Pager Text")
HAHAHAHA...wow, flashback.
... wow drex just wow... luckily i never had to use a pager
1707 2 010 2 637 743 380
(Not too Old to get the EVO)!
I know! You've got me wanting to dig around and find my last pager...which I still have somewhere. Being part of Generation X, makes us able to appreciate how far we've come in the mobile world.
do they still make pagers?
That's a good question...LOL...I really don't know. Once two-ways came out, I think pagers got phased out. Not positive though. Only place I could see them still existing is in the hospital.
actually they do.. think hospital
I am sorry but i never understood the concept of pagers.
I mean yeah they were like cellphones minus the phone part
But if i got a page, i'd have to find a payphone(omg...i just saw my first pay phone today while i got off my plane here in California) to call the person back.
Sounds like a lot of work.
But i guess at the same time, this was very advanced back in the 90s
i just googled some pagers...i found a cute one that was blue
but i didn't know you could put 911 in the the pager message.
Did pagers have phone numbers?
LOL...Yup. You'd just dial the pager number, you hear a personalized answering machine from the person you're paging, then it'll beep (just like an answering machine). You punch in your number or you leave a voice message.
In order to get spaces between numbers, just press *. # would be to end the page early.
