It saved someone's life two months ago on the side of the road... we would never have been able to raise the ambulance in time otherwise...

That right, that was a unfortunately but textbook example of why to have one. Aside from that I've found it very useful from day to day when out at the lake, traveling on back roads, or even traveling on the highway and still having full signal in what is a "dead zone" to everyone else.
Not to mention there is no hassle to use it. Once installed and hidden way that is it. No wires to mess with, docking station, or anything with my version.
The version I have is certainly ideal in my opinion.
That little black rectangular piece at the bottom of the picture is the interior antenna. It automatically picks up any devices within range and amplifies the signal. Makes it extremely convenient for anyone to use because all they have to do is sit in my vehicle to get the benefits with their own device.
I only know one guy who has an iPhone, and we've never had the opportunity to drive out someone and try the cell booster on it. However I'm sure it'll work just like anything else. I do know it works with the Droid and Blackberry at least.

I did notice with my droid, it would wig out I think from signal overload if I left it in automatic (I attribute this to the booster trying to boost both the 1x and 3G signals to the same level causing the phone to not know which one to use), but if I set it to home only it seemed to work much better with the wilson...definitely worth having if you do alot of travelling in places cell providers don't think you need to be:sombrero:

Is there no mobile phone coverage along the roads - without these helpers? :Wow1:

Not in a surprisingly large amount of places.

Works great as is, so I see no other reason to mount it anywhere else.

BURN_E,
To answer your question...technically yes, it would be more effective, but the mounting locations on his truck are somewhat restricted for a magnet mount...ideally you would want to mount it in the top center of the vehicle, which is covered by the rack...the location its mounted is a happy medium so to speak, but as Chris said it still works.

Call CarCannibal in Oklahoma city. All they have are rover parts. The place is a rover salvage but the cool thing is everything is stored inside.

What happened? Looks like a severe case of overspray
