I have a blackberry with verizon 3g network. My signal inside the home is weak but it is there most of the time. My question is, if I buy a signal amplifier for my home, will it work with 3g and a cdma smartphone?

I have played with several Wilson amplifiers for my home office and they do work but require a lot of effort to correctly setup an attic or exterior antenna, like a yagi and also mean you have to use very specific low-loss cable to really get it to work well.
The other alternative is a cool box that both Verizon and Sprint (CDMA) offer called Airave built by Samsung. On the surface this looks to operate similar to the T-Mobile UMA.
I have the Sprint Airave and I get five bars all the time in my home office with it and one bar maybe without it. This box creates a cell tower in your home office that works on all (Sprint) in my case phones that get close enough to get the signal. I actually limit it to only the numbers that are on my account to keep other neighbors off of it.
The manual says it does not create a 3G tower, however most of the time by 9650 shows 3G while on it (1XEV).
