Starting Your Car...Yea, There's an App for That

It's that time of year again, when warming up your car is a must. If you're lazy like me, the remote starter has been the best invention since the remote control. The Viper SmartStart from Directed Electronics is an iPhone compatible application that allows you to lock, unlock, start, open your trunk and sound the alarm all with the touch of a button, err screen that is. This app works anywhere with a cell phone signal. You could literally lock your car from another state. You do need to have the SmartStart installed in your car for this to work, and if you do have one it can be converted to work with any existing remote starter.
