Abstract

A general-purpose data terminal (242), such as a personal computer, portable computer, notebook computer, personal intelligent communicator, portable wireless terminal and the like employs a radio frequency (RF) modem (408) and is programmed to function as a two-way acknowledge back pager. The general purpose data terminal 242 maintains a table listing (600) of caller identification information and presents this information to the device user upon receipt of a page (300) from an identifiable caller.
The device user may respond to the page by selecting on of a plurality of user definable responses to be transmitted back to the caller. If no response is selected the caller will receive a message informing them of the paged party's unavailability.
