iBooster as inside home cell phone signal amplifier

iBooster for iPhone is out and their is a lot of talk about how if it can be used inside the house to improve iphone or Blackberry signal reception. The iBooster is reported to have improved the signal from one bar to 4 anf 5 bars in some cases. Especially when driving in and out of bad cellular phone reception areas, can be very annoying when you have to repeat yourself twice. The iBooster categorically takes care of this problem.

Some folks have shown interest in having the iBooster work at home as well, for those who have poor signal reach inside the home. The answer to that is to buy a AC adapter because the iBooster by default comes with a DC adapter suited for car for which this device is originally designed. The magnetic antenna is very convenient to snap out of the car and fixed inside the home on any metal surface.

The one drawback that the iBooster has is that it you cant talk to the phone directly when the phone is in the so called cradle, a fancy name for the iBooster’s slot where the iPhone or the Blackberry slides In. The iBooster dosen’t have an opening where the iPhone has their microphone implanted into the device. The iBooster is not designed to talk to the phone as this is an in the car cellular signal booster solution. The manufacturers have taken safety in to consideration and have made the iBooster to compliment with a bluetooth device or a hands free device.

To use iBooster for in home solutions its better to leave the phone near the antenna and use a bluetooth device to talk over the phone, since the antenna’s range is still a range that is originally designed to work in a car, the phone and antenna needs to be in relatively close proximity like it would be in a car. Nevertheless the iBooster is one nifty and powerful device that the iPhone lovers in weak signal area would fall in love.
