iBooster for Apple iPhone: First Impressions

Wilson Electronics' Newest Product May Be the Ultimate iPhone Car Accessory

The iPhone may not be EVDO-compatible, but we have to admit that we are iPhone fanatics here at EVDOinfo.com/3Gstore.com. One of the few problems that we have with it is the lack of an antenna port to connect an external antenna. Without an antenna port, the only way to attach an external antenna to boost signal strength to the iPhone is via a passive antenna adapter. Unfortunately, these passive adapters are not very effective at all when used with an antenna alone, meaning in order to use one with your iPhone you really need to use an amplifier and an antenna - more gear, more money. Another drawback of those passive antenna adapters is the way that they attach to the iPhone, which is with Velcro. To attach that Velcro, you need to use the provided adhesive strip. The iPhone is a beautiful product, and personally I wouldn’t want to glue an ugly piece of Velcro to my iPhone and have to carry one side of the Velcro around with me.

These are just a few of the reasons that we are very excited to be introducing a new product from Wilson Electronics designed specifically for the iPhone. You'll also find 'wilson booster video' in our review:
