Cell phone question...
actually I was wondering about those "signal enhancers" you can attach to the inside of your battery. Do they work, are they worth the $10 or is it a gimmick

1. I was told they're a gimmick
If there is no tower nearby it isn't going to make the signal stronger

and neither has my husband and he has a different kind of phone and a different carrier than me.

5. Thanks, that's what I thought...
we just switched to AT&T and we love the new phones, and they are crystal clear when we have reception, it's just in our town that we have some dead spots. Apparently they have some new towers up and are going to be activating them in the next couple of months which should alleviate those problems and also, Cingular is buying them out so they will incorporate their towers with AT&T's so we'll see.

Thanks for the input folks! :hi:
