    WeMo

    I use WeMo too but it doesn't always ideniify the devices on my iPhone. They do firmware updates every so often, so hopefully they will fix the problem.

    new 2-way text pager

    No disrespect here, but I'm not selling zipit pagers. Originally I was just asking if anyone has used them and decided to get one and share my experience. The underlying carrier for Virgin Mobile is Sprint. Sprint is lacking in my area compared to Verizon and $35 is still more than I'm paying...

    new 2-way text pager

    Nothing wrong with using a smartphone at all, but my alarm system (at the business that I work at and co-manage) alerts me when the doors are opened and closed as well as when the alarm is set or disengaged so I can see when my employees get to work and leave for the evening. I just need...

    new 2-way text pager

    I think the zipit was originally designed for doctors, they have a smartphone app too, but I was trying to get away from using a smartphone due to the expense. I used a Motorola T900 years ago, but the service wasn't real reliable and the cost of the plan kept going up.

    new 2-way text pager

    My Zipit now 2way pager came in yesterday. I hooked up my alarm system to send pages to the zipit's numeric pager phone number and that works great. It also has a separate number for text messages and an email address. I tried it out with a friend and we text back and forth. It works very...

    new 2-way text pager

    I really think that's why T-Mobile and Sprint offer all of these deals that Verizon and AT&T don't offer. They know their coverage is lacking so they try to make it up with bargain deals. Bottom line, if I can't get a signal, it doesn't matter how much I'm paying, i just need to be able to use...

    new 2-way text pager

    lol, no time travel here. I was just looking for specific features. Sprint and T-mobile's service is spotty at best in my area and the reporting capability is the big thing that i like. I don't need web access and I'm trying to keep my costs as low as possible. I found out the Zipit now works...

    new 2-way text pager

    I was looking at the clear plan, but they don't have coverage in my area (Southern New Jersey). I just emailed pagersdirect.net. They said that they are offering $25 off for deaf customers and they also offer a 30 day refund policy. I think I'm going to try it. If I don't like, I'll return...

    new 2-way text pager

    I haven't found a cellular plan that offered unlimited text messaging for just $29.95/month that also offered the reporting capability that the zipit now offers. Supposedly, you can login to a computer and see all the messages and whether they were received and read and what time they were...

    new 2-way text pager

    Has anyone used this new 2-way pager called the Zipit Now? It offers unlimited text messaging for just $29.95/month and also has a web portal that you can log into and it contains a log of all messages sent and received. I found it at pagersdirect.net and looks pretty good.
