Re: $100

If you have cell service, and it doesn't work in your home, and it's going to use your minutes, they should *give you* a repeater to make the service work.
That would be nice, but IMHO, that's an unrealistic expectation. No cell company guarantees coverage.

Plus, I really can't fault AT&T too much for my poor reception - they built a tower about 3,000 feet away. The terrain is simply not good for any sort of radio reception here. I've considered buying a repeater, but the ones I've seen are way more than $100, and I'd want something I know is going to work with 3G. A simpler, cheaper device that I can plug into my broadband connection sounds like a great idea to me. I have no need for cheaper/extra minutes. I don't spend that much time on my phone. I just want it to work for those few times I do need it.
