Also the part about the stolen phone is something to considder:

"Great, so now if someone pinches my phone (which are not yet anywhere near encrypted or secure enough to bestow your cars security on) they can nick my car"

I don't understand what you guys are worrying about - given all the new i30 bluetooth phone sync problems I read about here - what makes you think the new system will be "crackable".......... :whistler:
