Abstract

A pager has a receiver for receiving selective paging numbers and message data and a message display panel for displaying paging messages to the user. The pager has a first memory for storing message data. Control data, arriving together with the message data and related to its display, is stored in a second memory. A display controller, responsive to external operating inputs from the user, is provided for controlling the contents of the messages to be displayed on a basis of the control data. A display responds to control from the display controller, to read out and display messages stored in the first memory.
