With a cell phone dock, sleek antenna, and a charger, the home and office accessory kit can go with you wherever you need.
Simply attach the suction cups on the antenna onto any window and hook it up to the docking system and your phone have about a 30% increase in signal. Take it to the airport or hotel.
This really is an awesome product if you are stuck somewhere with not much service or have limited service at your house or office.

Not a Good Idea
