Car keys and cell phones..

Listers... this has nothing to do with MG`s, not `T` types anyway, but apparently it works.....just had a message from my brother who tried it and although I cannot use the exact words he used, he was quite amazed !!.... Ever locked the keys in the car? Here's a solution most of us would welcome: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are home just call someone on your cell phone who has another set. Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the other person at your home or wherever press the unlock button, holding it near the phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for your car you can unlock the doors (or the trunk!). Editor's Note: It works fine! We tried and it unlocked our car over a cell phone! Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
