It would be better if they had remote front and rear units that mounted in the grill and rear window. This and a laser jammer both controlled by one iPhone would be great. Otherwise, it's useless and bulky and adds an extra gadget to mount for no good reason.

Sure, but then you have to integrate a charger into whatever setup you have cause you obviously have to mount the phone somewhere. And what if your phone is on the fritz or lost or stolen, then you're screwed. Wait too much reliance on something I don't personally consider a commodity

I have been a negative nancy lately haven't I? Not the biggest fan of harbor freight and this hasn't moved me. Definitely a cool idea, but I'm a fan of practical, affective, and most importantly... cost effective. Though I'm on my phone a lot, I don't panic if I forget it at home or am away from it for more than 10 mins. Just my way of life. I love technology, but I prefer to not depend so much on it.
