Home>About PC Paging

Founded in 1988, (Traded as PC Paging, Inc. 1992) PC Paging has participated in the paging industry form before the emergence of pagers as a consumer item to where we are today: a consumer and technology driven industry.

When PC Paging began purchsing pagers and service for redistribution and resale to end users the word "Reseller" was not yet in the paging industry vocabulary. Today resellers like us command a market share of somewhere between 40 and 60% of all pagers in service. PC Paging has always contracted with the highest quality carriers operating in ther superior Ultra High Frequency 900 MHz band. We sell almost exclusively Motorola Equipment because of its user friendliness, reliability, reparability and durability. We also occasionally carry the NEC Exec Numeric pager as a reliable low cost alternative.

Our Company Headquarters are located in Clinton, Maryland, a quiet residential area in the Washington DC suburbs just outside of Andrews Air Force Base (Home of Air Force One). We also have retail locations in Maryland and conduct most of our business with people who live and travel along the East Coast of the United States. We do however have a presence in various parts of the country with our paging customers and are capable of offering paging service anywhere in the Continental United States. Soon this coverage will span throughout Canada and the Americas to our south.

PC Paging's Company Philosophy since its foundation by Patrick Oberman while studying at the University of Maryland has been a simple and straightforward one. "Sell the best service money can buy; Sell the best pagers money can buy; Do both at the most competitive prices posible." This philosophy means You are happy and we can focus on growth, improving our service, and lowering our prices. In the 9 years PC Paging has been in business our retail prices have fallen over 75% for service and 70% for equipment. All this while the technology has improved for both by a factor of at least 4.

PC Paging has joined the world of the Web as the use of the Internet has begun to bring a world of information to the palms of people's hands, literally, with the merging of the world of the Internet to latest paging technology. Thus we have been beckoned to join the world of the Web. We are glad the Internet exists and we are very happy to have become neighbors. If you have any suggestions as to how we can as a corporate member further the community spirit in a non-commercial way please let us know.

The older concepts of paging; sending a page to a tone or numeric dvice via a touch tone phone are rapidly being replaced by newer AlphaNumeric Technologies. These techologies allow full text messaging via proprietary software, basic communications interfaces or now, via E-Mail through the Internet.

This is the most exciting thing to happen to pagers since their introduction and PC Paging is here to bring it to you!
