Re: Unlocking a car with your cellphone
Back in the '60's , we had a remote control TV. The remote had only two buttons-two HUGE buttons-and no batteries.
The buttons (one for channel, the other for "on-quiet-medium-loud-off") were about an inch tall . You had to squeeze like hell, and an air pump made a "whoosh" . We figured maybe it contained a reed like a little harmonica which put out a note in the "dogs only" audio band. If you jingled a set of car keys just right, it would change the channel.
If I'da had a cell phone in 1967, I probably could've switched from "Bewitched" to "Get Smart" from across town.
