I got one of the blades you are talking about and use velcro to attach it to the back of my ipaq..however I've found the results to be pretty bloddy poor myself and in some cases I'm getting a better signal with the stock avaya antenna than with the blade.

I looked at the signal gain in NS with and without the blade and it certainly isn;t 4 DB - there are other threads in here on the blade who say the same thing.

I've been tempted to get one of the hypergain 5 db antenna's and mod it to attach to my ipaq.
