In itself there is nothing new about radio paging, but an innovative system is now being marketed by the American company J-tech. It consists of a 27MHz transmitter, which is intended to be located at a restaurant's front desk, and pagers that are handed out to customers who cannot be seated the moment they arrive. The pagers are designed as drinks coasters, the intention obviously being that they proceed to the bar! Alternatively, if you are one of those who don't want to place a pre-dinner drink on their pager, it can be slipped into the pocket or bag.
