  Key Fob - Levenger.com
A key fob can be the perfect way to keep your car or house key separated from your collection of other keys, always leaving it at the ready for whenever you need to most.
A key fob helps you avoid a fruitless scramble through your pockets or purse to find a single desired key, because the key fob, with its smooth leather disc and sturdy machine-tested key ring, is always easy to grab, and always easy to use.
A key fob can keep your boat or cabin key waiting for a few hours to be spent alone where you most want to be, or it can be used as an everyday accessory for keeping the right key always in hand.

When the key fob is brought within 3 inches of the sensor, the unique date incoded in the key fob is transfered to the sensor-receiver, activating whatever device-relay, solenoid, light, locks, etc.- that you have connected to the receiver.
These are brand new units consisting of two key fobs, a master programer key in a sealed container, and a receiver box with sensor.
If someone steals one of the key fobs, you may program a new code with the master programer key fob into a remaining fob so that the stolen one will no longer work.

 Top 10 Most Fabulous Key Fobs   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Automakers recognize that key fobs are a tangible aspect of the car ownership experience, valued by drivers for both their tactile and eye-catching qualities.
One unfortunate caveat: The key fob can sometimes be confused for a switchblade, as was the case for Nathan Rau, an attorney in Minnesota and the proud owner of a 2003 Audi A4.
This new fob doesn't have a key at all; instead, the fob itself is inserted into a slot on the dashboard to activate the push-button start.

It is vital to be pushing the key latch as far as it will go, or the back will not release.

 What is key fob? - a definition from Whatis.com
Just as the keys held on an ordinary real-world key chain or fob control access to the owner's home or car, the mechanisms in the key fob control access to network services and information.
The key fob (and similar devices, such as smart cards) provide two-factor authentication: the user has a personal identification number (PIN), which authenticates them as the device's owner; after the user correctly enters their PIN, the device displays a number which allows them to log on to the network.
Because a key fob is a physical object, it is easy for the owner to know if it has been stolen.

 SAABs Alcohol Lock-Out Key Fob
When the driver presses the “unlock doors” button on the car’s remote-control key fob, the alcohol sensor is also switched on.
The driver then blows into a small mouthpiece at the end of the fob to provide a breath sample which passes down a small internal tube containing a semi-conductor sensor the size of a pin-head.
This is in addition to the usual signal the key normally transmits to switch off the anti-theft engine immobilizer.

 Keyless Cars - MSN Autos
With no key to turn and remove from the ignition and put in my hand, I had to retrain myself to stop stepping out of the car until I pressed the engine button on the dashboard.
Smart key systems don't require regular maintenance, and the fob batteries, which are generally akin to those used for watches, should last up to three years, officials said.
For example, at Mercedes, the fobs are customized to each car, so an owner must go to a dealer, show proof of ownership of the car, and then order a new fob, which is produced at an off-site, secure facility and then shipped to the dealer.

 Chrysler Repair: key fob
So as each fob is different I believe that it has to be introduced to the system via that readout box which is only likely to be available at a dealer.
In '94, on the LH series cars with the anti-lock brake system, there there is a traction control module whose plug is used to ground a wire of the remote keyless entry module (a separate unit on the dash) and that does allow one to program a new fob into the system.
I believe though that by '95 with the introduction of the Cirrus the keyless module was absorbed into the body computer module and that is when the ability to do this yourself ended.

For the wee fee of only $150, this new key chain attachment finally puts key information drivers need to know at all times right at their fingertips -- and from the comfort of their home or place of work via a crisp little Tamagotchi-like screen on the front of the fob.
There's been a few similar aftermarket fobs for some years now; but since this may become mainstream I think it's only a matter of time before someone learns to hack the system to easily roll down a window and steal steal steal...or to change your presets just to see the vein in your head pop.
I agree with the above, that while the fob is nice, most of us carry a device with a nicer screen.
