I work at an electronics contract manufacturer, and we prototyped and built the initial products (until we couldn't handle the larger volumes the company was selling) for a device that extended the signal for cell phones to use. The company is called Wireless Extenders, and the product can be found in various places (Radio Shack, Fry's, Amazon, etc.).
You might want to check it out for your home if you are in a cell dead zone. Keep in mind that you need a decent signal outside of the house (where the main antenna will be mounted...higher is better!), as it will only boost that original signal.
