[ale] OT "ish" - best paging service for sysadmins

[ale at jeffx.com]

Well I just turned in my Skytel pager.  I had a bill for $1,419.54 one month and two bills for $500+.  We got records of the pages and I never recieved 97% of them (not to mention they weren't for me).  So, to make a long story short I am not a big fan of Skytel.  

Regards,
J
