I&nbsp;know it's old school, but I like it's independance from the
phone/network system in the event of an emergency. Plus, it's much cheaper
considering the phones you have to buy and licence and the paging software you
have to buy/licence as well. Granted it gives you two way communication if you
need it and you can use the phone for other things as well, but in a tight
budget situation, I'm thinking over head paging is the way to go.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
