Wireless Range Expander

I have a network at my house for my business. My servers, routers, wireless, etc. are all housed in a 24U Compaq rack which is in my office. My wireless connectivity in my living room is limited. I'm looking for a range expander.
Few questions:
1) Do they make a Wireless A (802.11a) range expander?
2) Are the Wireless B (802.11b) or G (802.11g) range expanders good?
I have a Dual Band Wireless Access Point (A&B). My Tablet PC's have 802.11b wireless built in So that would be my main concern to get in the living room. My laptop has Wireless A. Thanks for the help.

Range expanders are one of the possible solutions. However the best solution depends on much more then Good or Bad Expander.

I would not use an Extender (Repeater) for 801.11b since it cuts the Bandwidth into half and 802.11b is rather low to begin with.

May be this can Help.
