¿Question #227087?
sparkous: With today's technologies, what is the closest thing to an old pager?

TomTi89: As Robin says, we're still using pagers, although not in our department. I used to carry one, and I'm so very glad to no longer have to. We seem to be moving into the slightly more recent past...ahem, I mean future...with some people now carrying PDAs [that's Personal Digital Assistant, NOT Public Display of Affection!]
TheGrimReeple: The *most similar* thing is probably a mobile phone. The *closest* thing is the rest of the junk heap.
0Shea0: My smartwatch is just that. And its real convenient because then I don't have to dig all the way in my pocket for my phone. Can you imagine!?
pricero1: Hospitals still use pagers. The closest thing is a mobile phone.
Woelf: Smartwatch
