    Other Notable Accolades for the Sleek
    • John Gordon of Practical Travel Gear, had this to say about the Sleek, "Simply put, the Sleek works. And it works well. It can (and did) increase a cell phone's received and transmitted signals by 10 to 20 times. That can mean the difference between a mediocre signal and a very strong signal, which means fewer dropped calls. Or if a phone shows no signal, the Sleek may be able to provide enough of a boost to actually make calls."

    • CNET gave the Sleek an "Excellent" rating, with 4 (of a possible 5) stars. The CNET review lauded the Sleek's simple setup and compact form factor. It also noted in areas of consistently poor reception in San Francisco the Sleek provided increased cell phone range and improved signal.

    The Sleek will extend the calling range and signal strength of any phone on any North American 2G or 3G network (except Nextel/iDEN). This means fewer disconnects, dropped calls, and no-service "dead zones," and faster data transfer rates.

    Designed for use in a vehicle, or with an optional accessory package in the home or office, the Sleek is now available for purchase at Walmart.com, Amazon.com and BestBuy.com as well as other electronics retailers with a manufacturer's suggested retail price of $129.95. Ideal for use with a Bluetooth headset or other hands-free device, it provides the user everything needed for simple do-it-yourself installation.
