Glenayre's two-way pager

On: Looking For Wireless Handheld E-Mail And Web?

The Glenayre Technologies AccessLink II device offers much the same functionality as the Pagewriter and RIM devices, but their claim to fame is that the AccessLink is smaller, lighter and has longer battery life.

The smaller size is achieved by using a 'soft keyboard', which is much easier to use than it appears at first glance.

It has an IRDA port which allows you to compose and receive messages on your Palm PDA. They also have a Springboard module for the Visor PDA, called the ActiveLink.

Service is provided by Skytel, Worldcom and Weblink Wireless.

No Web browsing with a device this size, but I can request stock quotes, weather, news, movie showtimes, driving directions, traffic information etc., etc. from the device.
