AT&T have just revealed something they are calling a 3G MicroCell.

I've covered 3G to WiFi routers in the past, this is different in that you connect it to your home or business broadband and it provides you a 3G signal.

You can register 10 phones to the system and use up to 4 at any one time.

It gives you full bar signal and 3G network service in your own home up to 5,000 feet.

The technology is only available in the US at present, but I'm sure other telephone providers will follow suit soon
