How about this:

A modem with Caller ID

The software monitors the phone line, and when someone phones, pages you with their number.

If you receive *junk* calls that you don't want to page, maybe the software could filter all
but a few numbers.  Maybe also it could read a message to the caller saying you are being
paged and please wait for a return call (or something)

Anyone want to write it?
