The Treo (or any phone/PDA combo based on Palm or PocketPC) and
PocketDBA is *the best* paging device for Oracle (and SQServer, DB2 and
Teradata) DBAs out! ;)
I'm biased though. ;)

Subject: Paging Devices for Oracle DBAs
I'd like to get some feedback on good communication/paging devices for Oracle DBAs. I currently have a crappy old Nokia phone that can recieve email, but it's not very good for this purpose. Are any of you using devices that work really well for DBA alerts? The Treo and Blackberry units look nice, but they are expensive. Are they really worth the expense for this function? I used to carry a clam-shell Motorolla pager that was useful, but too big for comfort. A phone/pager combination would be ideal I think, if it works well :-). What are you guys using that you like/don't like?
Best regards,
David B. Wagoner
