Depending on what model of phone you have, you can enhance the signal somewhat with an internal antenna. These devices stick under the battery and can boost the signal a couple notches. To my knowledge, most Motorola phones already have them.

I don't have a mobile phone as i believe they are just a fad...like the net...which will soon dissapear.
