I would look at this like a retro looking device with new features. The biggest being these "pages" are out of band to wifi/cell networks. Being able to send/receive encrypted communications without wifi/cell is pretty great. Plus very cheap hardware with really good performance. Some people might like those features or just exploring . I for one would be interested in pushing some NOSTR notes over LoRa network

I already have enough beeps in my day. I dont need something else beeping at me.

Very true.
I somehow tell myself each time that this will help me consolidate the things competing for my attention.
reply
Would it consolidate or just provide more distractions. Sure, if I wasnt using a cellphone I might need a pager, but I dont need both.

This wouldn't consolidate, it would just add another layer of beeps. It would also add another device to carry and charge. something else to check firmware on and all of that. It solves a very narrow use case.
