Automobile Security With SMS
"Britco & Bridco have developed the Mobile phone Automobile Security System (MASS), a device that allows car owners to monitor and control their cars via SMS. Say, for instance, someone has broken your passenger side window in the interest of getting at that nice new Pioneer AVIC-N1 you just had installed. You�ll get an SMS informing you that some dude has broken your passenger side window; you then can sound an alarm, turn on a speaker to ask the burlgar to kindly step away from your vehicle, or you can simply listen in on what the friendly robber has to say. If he decides he wants your car in its entirety, you can also shut off the engine via SMS (we don�t even want to know the syntax for that one)."
Using your mobile phone to control your car remotely, sounds like a pretty good idea. Actually, I really like the notification features. Nothing like getting a SMS in the middle of a client meeting that tells you someone is trying to hot-wire your car. :?
