I know nothing of the technology required to jam a cell signal but I can't imagine that the cost of implementation and maintenance would be cheaper than stepping up security to crack down on smuggled phones and expanding the preexisting means of communication.
I also don't think it reasonable to expect inmates not to have any contact with the outside world beyond the allowed means of communication - where there's a will there's a way. And also, am I the only one who sees this becoming a Movie of The Week involving a prison riot, trapped guards and blocked cell signals?

What the fuck is wrong with the people against this? Staying in touch with their families? What?! Yeah, career criminals also enjoy long walks on the beach, candle light dinners and reading romantic novels.
How is a prison safe if the inmate has a cell phone?
