IMHO not worth the $299.99 for no sort of 2-way page alert at all. The module takes a SIM card if I'm not mistaken, that way it can receive commands via the iPhone from any distance. The only advantages are the range and the fact that you can crank your car with your phone. I bet I could unlock with the keyless FOB faster, than one could slide the bar over and boot up that app.

I install these all the time at work, IMO waste of money esp if your using it for the manual remote start feature. since the moment you unlock your car to get something you have to do the manual remote start sequence over again. The notifications are really fast, one big down side what i see is only one aux channel can be used with the phone which is only the trunk. anything else will not work with your phone. it goes through cell phone towers as well so if the area the car is in has no signal your SOL.

Any updates on this system, specifically the VSM250 (gps module)? I dont want the alarm or remote start, and according to Viper's site, the gps portion can be installed as standalone. THey have "lockdown" mode, whcih will supposedly text you if the car moves, or leaves the geofence you create. Any feedback on this functionality?
