Orphan date April 2012 EMBARC Electronic Mail Broadcast to A Roaming Computer was a business enterprise of the Motorola company that provided wireless broadcast of e mail and news to mobile subscribers. It was established in 1990 after Motorola purchased Contemporary Communications, a national carrier for pagers in the 900 MHz band. Unfortunately, alphanumeric pager s did not show rapid growth in the market, forming less than 5 of all pagers by 1991. ref name derose1999 The EMBARC service could feed data at 1,200 bits per second bps from 3.5 kilowatt kW ground transmitters. It could send messages up to 1,500 characters long to portable computers that were equipped to receive the messages. It was useful for sending a simultaneous message or memo to up to 500 mobile users. The most likely users of this service were thought to be sales people operating in the field, receivers of service requests, and the transportation industry. The deliveries were charged based on time until reception, with the charge being more cost effective for larger numbers of clients. ref name brodsky1997 In 1996, Motorola attempted to use EMBARC to penetrate a different market broadcasting current sports scores. ref name brodsky1997 However, the EMBARC enterprise failed in April, 1996 ref name derose1999 and Motorola sold their national paging license.

Unreferenced date July 2008 In telephony , a split plan is the practice of introducing a new area code by dividing an existing area code s territory and applying the new area code to one of the resulting divisions, replacing the existing area code within that section. Split plans are used as growth in demand for telephone numbers due to the increase in use of pagers, fax machines, and cellular phones required new area codes in increasingly densely populated areas. Unpopularity results from the fact that, after a split plan is implemented, the telephone numbers in an affected area are changed to a new area code, requiring printing of new stationery , advertisement, and signage, and the dissemination of new numbers to family, friends, and customers. As a result, in the mid 1990s, the North American Numbering Plan introduced overlay plan s, which apply multiple area codes to the same area. They allow customers to keep existing phone numbers, but require 10 digit dialing in the affected area.

Founded in 1981 by entrepreneur George Perrin , PageNet Paging Network, Inc. grew to become the largest wireless messaging company in the world, with more than 10 million pagers in service and 1 billion in revenues, before the paging industry s rapid decline in the late 1990s. Operations Based in Dallas , PageNet held the distinction of building and operating the most extensive one way paging network in the United States, growing to more than 90 offices across the United States. The company was known for its low cost strategy and aggressive marketing tactics, although in its later years it positioned itself as a technology innovator as well. The company extended operations to Canada and Brazil. Financial Difficulties PageNet s fortunes began to decline in the late 1990s, when the company spent nearly 1 billion to purchase additional spectrum and build out a new network designed to offer advanced services, such as voice paging and two way paging. Products developed by Motorola for PageNet s network were unsuccessful, as was a reorganization of the company engineered by McKinsey & Company . Ironically, PageNet had an opportunity to purchase the network that went on to support the successful BlackBerry service, but decided to team with Motorola instead. As PageNet sank under the weight of its investment, the one way paging market collapsed with millions of former paging customers switching to 2G digital cellular and Personal Communications Service PCS services, which cut prices dramatically while offering new features such as nationwide calling plans and text messaging . Under its last CEO, John P.
