Wondering if a GSM pager/beeper exists & is on the market

A long time ago I read/saw something about special low-cost GSM "phones" that only had SMS capability. These were developed for deaf people in developing countries. However, any potential savings were probably very short-lived due to the eventual lower unit cost of mass manufactured 'normal' handsets.
