Not yet. Don't have the extra $200 for one more "gee-whiz" gaget to make friends jelous. Also, not entirely sure of the purpose just because the remote range is so far, why would you need to unlock/lock, start etc. from further than a mile is beyond me. But take some videos of using it from your phone.

The 5901 is a newer model. All in one remote/LED, different, slimmer remote, manual transmission mode, and a few other things.

We've been messin with the smart start at work. Pretty sweet little toy, but thats all it really is. I can see it being a lot more affective the the iphone could run multiple apps at one time like a palm Pre can. That way if your out of range of your car, you can still get updates via the iphone app.

I don't have a video camera. I am more into the gadgets then the lift kits.

This is supposedly coming very soon. Just got off the phone with DEI tech support.

Dude wouldn't give me any info on timeframe though.

It would use the iphone's push notifications... or if your phone is jail broken, you can have the app running in the background while you're doing you're own thing in a different app
