GPS antenna booster? not!
 
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tegory=34 289

This clever seller advertises those useless infomercial type peel and stick
patch antennas alleged to dramatically boost cellphone performance. He lists
them on eBay under dozens of headings such as GPS Booster, Cordless Phone
Booster,
GMRS Booster, etc.

What is the most astounding is that he has sold hundreds and has 100% positive
feedback with over 700 ratings!!! his customers RAVE about hw well these
"boosters" work. He sells em cheap, so the harm is minimal. It goes to show how
undependable anecdotal evaluation of antenna performance is when no
quantitative analysis is done.

Makes you wonder how he can improve his lifestyle selling $1.75 items.
