To tell you all the truth, the pager systems are a waste of money. I used to sell them when I worked at circuit city. I usually told ppl to shy away unless they absolutely wanted it. Besides they have a real short range. If you have a DEI alarm, the pager system has a really short range, somewhere between 500-1000ft and doesn't work to well in some buildings (ie. metal framed). Now, on the other hand, the viper 790xv and it's clifford equivalent (both DEI alarms) have a built in graphic pager system that, from my experience, works from up to a half a mile away and through any building material.
My Clifford alarm on my 1993 Civic Ex was able to page me on the other side of the mall. Which is pretty far.

I know I was in NYC about 30 blocks from my car and my pager went off. That freaked me out. Luckily when I got back to the car later it was only triggered by someone leaning or pressing on the car.
