The Palm can -- with the correct software -- act as a
learning remote. You take your Chrysler IR door "key",
point it at the Palm when it's in "learn" mode, and
press the button. The same thing could be done w/ a
$10 remote you buy at Walgreens. Or if you have
a metal key and I can take it over to Home Depot
for a few minutes, I can get a copy of that.
Basically the security issue is much the same as
with any other key -- don't give your key to someone
else.

AVOID this happening to me. perhaps some info I could go to the dealership
