Shirky: Permanet, Nearlynet, and Wireless Data
Good article. Worse is better?

Call the first network "perma-net," a world where connectivity is like air, where anyone can send or receive data anytime anywhere. Call the second network "nearly-net", an archipelago of connectivity in an ocean of disconnection. Everyone wants permanet -- the providers want to provide it, the customers want to use it, and every few years, someone announces that they are going to build some version of it. The lesson of in-flight phones is that nearlynet is better aligned with the technological, economic, and social forces that help networks actually get built. The most illustrative failure of permanet is the airphone. The most spectacular was Iridium. The most expensive will be 3G.

If you are having trouble with the paging system, it is interfaced via an Analog Board.
You will need to bring the analog board down. This is different than deactivating the individual ports on the board. So the two commands you'll need are DEADBSSU and ACTBSSU

Make sure you have the correct LTG, LTU and SLOT!
