In Spain, '¿Estás?' (Are you?) is often used as a shorthand for '¿Estás listo?'. The word 'listo' is sometimes used as an exclamation meaning 'Done!' or 'Fixed!' after repairing something. Argentinians might use 'Ya está' more frequently than 'Estoy listo' in casual settings to indicate they are finished with a task.
