Can you provide links for providers of this? We have exactly this problem. We're in a fringe zone of SprintPCS (East Livermore, CA) and none of our c-phones work inside the building. SprintPCS was supposed to do a buildout this way, this year, but it isn't happening.

At aprevious organizationI was slaved to, we brought this up with Nextel salespeople. After about aweek or so they purposed a small in-line receiver for thevarious datacenters, and a thin Kate Moss looking yagi for each roof.Actually, this should be a passive device. Various types of slotted waveguide/coax are made, for example in the Heliax product line. An antenna on the roof (directional antenna only if you're on the edge of a coverage area) and a slotted line through your facility will provide good results. Think about it for all commonly used frequencies (cellular and pager) that might be in use in your facility. This isn't something you have to get via your wireless vendor, and it doesn't need electronics. Hospitals have used such setups for years to permit doctor's pagers to function throughout buildings (even in basements).
