Pager Systems
Before mobiles, there was the humble pager, with Motorola dominating the market. In 1994, there were 61 million pager users, who favoured their simplicity.
The once basic pager system has progressed, with modern technology now enabling Bluetooth. Despite their association with a bygone era, the pager system still firmly has a place in modern life, with a variety of businesses using them to help things run smoothly.
