Ikea Should Get Some Femtos

I am fortunate enough to live in an environment that is incredibly well covered by 2G and 3G networks day in and day out and further progress can be noted every now and then. But some places seem to remain black holes. Take big furniture stores for example, like those of Ikea. The mix of concrete, corrugated metal and heat reflecting glass doesn't only keep the heat out but also the signals of cellular networks. So how about it Ikea, you are big enough to be taken seriously by wireless network operators when it comes to improving coverage. Get some femots or repeaters inside and do your customers a favor!

you are quite right! Ikea stores do need Femtos. They definetely are missed hot spots.

Unless they're short of capacity as well as coverage, surely a DAS would be better than femtos, as it could support multiple operators?
