I don’t go out in public a whole lot, but when I do I usually hear about somebody that gets crappy cell reception from their living space.  Whereas older iterations of cell phone antenna’s have either been too expensive or the set up wasn’t worth the hassle, this USB antenna will give your phone 2-3 more bars of reception from up to 5 feet away.  Is it worth $100?  Here’s the features:

• USB powered device boosts your cellphone signal for improved voice and data
• 2-3 bars extra signal for any cell phone or 3G data card
• More signal means better call quality for cell phones, and up to 100% faster download speeds for 3G data cards.
• Prevents dropped calls and improves call clarity
• No drivers or software needed, only uses USB for power
• Simple installation – Simply place antenna near a window (up to 15 feet away) and plug into your laptop’s USB port. The advanced circuity does the rest.
• Compatible with every carrier in Canada and the US (Except “iDEN” phones used by Nextel, Southern LINC, and MiKE Canada)
• Intelligent microprocessor-controlled amplification
