what people are saying

 On Fridays Adafruit has some hardware fun. This week the top of an old pager was cracked open. There is a radio receiver inside that is constantly listening to the frequency that the pager is on. It is demonstrated that there is serial data that can be seen leaving the radio receiver chip. On an upcoming hack the data will be fed into a computer and the stream of network pager transmissions will attempt to be displayed. There might be a few soccer moms out there who still use pagers? Or is it just drug dealers these days?
