Options for poor mobile reception

My home is in an area that has a pretty weak mobile signal. Outside the house it's ok - inside you're lucky to get 1 bar. If you do manage to get a call, it'll cutout within a minute.

So, i want to find out my options for getting better reception. I'm out of contract and on a giffgaff rolling tarrif.

So far I know of:
SureSignal with Vodaphone (£50 but not currently in stock)
Home Signal with Three (Couldn't find a price)
UMA with Orange (Handset specific)
SmartCall on Virgin Mobile - Uses your Virgin home line through wifi.. only just announced (And i do have a virgin home line)
O2 TU - Sounds similar to SmartCall (Virgin) - also not available yet
O2 BoostBox (£150 to business users)

Does anyone else know of any other alternatives? Currently, I pay for a skypeIn number and run Skype on my mobile. Good for inbound calls, bad for outbound (and battery life)
