THIS LOOKS KIND OF COOL: A cellphone signal booster.

UPDATE: Rick Lee emails:

I use the Wilson…

My office is in a basement and without this there would be NO cell service. It works… it’s not perfect and the coverage is a small area, but it works. I’ve been told by a consultant that if I bought a more expensive unit I’d be happier. I will probably do that eventually.

Happy to say I don’t need one of these. But it’s cool that they exist.
