I live in a rural area, and mobile phone signals are not so good, I have an external mobile antenna mounted on my roof, with the cable running down into my house, .

I would like to buy a SonyEricsson K790i , but I need to know first , does this phone have a
an external antenna connection on it ( so I can just plug the cable from my roof antenna straight into the phone) I have tried a cradle type external antenna holder , that you just sit the mobile phone into, and connect the external antenna cable to the cradle , but the signal is still not so good, so the external antenna connection needs to plug directly into the phone..

So can any one please tell me if I can directly plug my external antenna coaxial cable direct into this model of phone..?

If you are in a rural area, and on AT&T, you would want to buy the K790a, which has the 850 band, and that is what AT&T uses. That would solve the first problem. I am not sure about plugging the antenna in, never heard of anyone doing that.
