I'm dissappointed with my current beeper, a 35mhz variety.  I'm missing
too many pages.  It seems overly susceptible to interference from
computers or telephone switching equipment.  900mhz pagers have been
reccommended for increased building penetration and reduced
susceptibility to interference.  Unfortunately my pager company does
not have 900mhz extended down to the Princeton/Trenton area, so its
time to switch.

For now I just need a simple numeric beeper with coverage from NYC
to Philadelphia including most of New Jersey.  Coverage and reliability
much more important than price.  Ability to expand coverage and
alphanumeric capabilities desireable but not immediately necessary.

Pagenet seems to fit the 900mhz coverage requirements.  Any comments,
suggestions, recommendations, or alternatives are appreciated.  Post
or email and I'll summarize if there is interest.
