AT&T -- cell signal booster ?

I have 3 employees using AT&T
cell phones inside a metal building
that does not have good reception, but
if they walk outside it works fine.

What cell signal booster do you recommend
to cover a small 800 sq foot area ?

Maybe something like

but I would like to just purchase
a one-time cell signal boster
for under $300 if possible.

You can use the foil trick.. ;) It's about 3cents a phone to do.. But does not always work, and only works on some phones.

For instance the Nokia Lumina 635 you can remove the battery, put down a piece of tin foil, and fold it to look like a stick of gum, put the battery back in, over it, which will boost the antenna reception and will extend the range.

It has worked on all cell phones that you can remove the battery on since the days of the brick.

But the one that Rhar put in, is probably better.. Unless you need an office project... hahhaa ;)
