Product Details & Size Guide
Add a communications-history touch to notes, reminders, and study sessions with this Zoom Telephonics sticky note pad. The company began in Boston in 1977, first making a telephone ringer modification kit before moving into automatic dialing and dial-up modems. Later chapters brought broadband and home networking products, followed by the 2020 transition to Minim. It makes a useful desk accessory for technology-history readers, former modem users, and collectors who like everyday objects connected to memorable company stories.
Zoom Telephonics began in 1977 in Boston, Massachusetts, founded by Frank B. Manning and Bruce Kramer, two MIT graduates and longtime friends. Its first product, the Silencer, was a telephone ringer modification kit; an automatic dialer introduced in 1980 helped the company grow. Zoom shifted toward computer networking with its Networker dial-up modem in 1983, serving microcomputers including the Apple II and IBM PC. After building retail recognition, it went public on Nasdaq in 1990. As Internet use spread in the mid-1990s, Zoom became a modem-market leader and acquired Hayes Microcomputer Products in July 1999, using that name on some high-end modems. Broadband competition weakened its position in the early 2000s. A five-year licensing agreement beginning in 2016 allowed Zoom to use the Motorola brand on home network and cable products, and sales increased. In December 2020, Zoom merged with Minim, Inc., adopted the Minim name, and moved its headquarters from Boston to Manchester, New Hampshire. Minim later sold cable modems, gateways, WiFi routers, mesh WiFi systems, and home automation products. After announcing financial difficulties in September 2023, Minim was acquired in March 2024 by Florida-based energy management company e2Companies.
Keep a stack by the phone for action items, stash a pad in your planner for weekly priorities, or place one on a conference table where everyone can jot a quick note. The adhesive holds through handling but releases cleanly when you move items around. For people who prefer minimal branding and maximum writing space, these pads help keep thoughts visible and tasks moving forward without shouting for attention.
