FCC Crackdown

So I've done some homework on the new FCC ruling and, unless I'm reading it wrong, it basically outlaws (that term is a little strong but not by that much) all the amplifiers we've ever purchased and will start laying out fines on March 1, 2014.

The ruling from last February originally read "… absent your providers permission you may not continue using your booster". Now it reads that it is up to the FCC or the carrier to alert you to turn off your booster, but the spirit of the ruling is the same.

There is some effort to put lipstick on this pig, but other than some company called "Smooth Talker" (I'm not making that name up!) nobody is even claiming to have an amp that complies with the new FCC ruling.

I noticed that Millenicom took down their offering for the Sleek. What is available in the marketplace that legitimately meets the needs of users who require a reliable connection?
