[X4U] Poor Cell Phone Reception at home

[Allan Rube]

Sprint has one too. From what I have been told if you call customer 
service, say you do not get reception at home, and say you will leave 
Sprint when your contract ends, they will loan you one for free with no 
monthly charge. If you just order one there is a charge for the unit and 
a monthly charge. The nice thing is that when you leave your home while 
on the phone the call will automatically switch to Sprint service.
T-Mobile has wi0fi calling which allows calling over an internet 
connection. It is built into most of its better phones. The downside is 
when you leave the wi0fi area, the call is dropped.

I think the Verizon unit only provides voice (not data).  I'm not sure about the AT&T device.  They both have an upfront charge, and I think no monthly charge.
