Remote starter that you can call to start???

I remember someone talking about it. Apparently you can call a 800 number or something and it will page your car to start.

I think this would really good for me since I work in a pretty big building and the parking lot is kinda far. Anyone have this on their TL, what are your experiences?

Thanks

Mods please delete this post from the main 2004+ forum. I think I'll get response here.

Audiovox makes the add on module that enables this function on their remote starters. It will also unluck the doors for you.

It would be perfect if you locked your keys in your car, and way faster than AAA. Pretty cool

While having an after dinner coffee in a cafe on a freezing winter night, you immagine how cold you and your date will be after walking the 3 or 4 blocks to where you've parked, perhaps too far for a remote transmitter to start your car.
You pick up your cell phone, make a call and arrive to a warm vehicle and an appreciative date
