The mirror feature would be nice at least on the passenger side. Tiltingdown to show you you're not about to run over anything. I don't do acomplete walkaround my vehicle every time I get in it. As for auto doorlocking, why would you not want it to do that? I see no reason to have topress the button on either the remote or door every time. The thing cando it on it's own, as well as roll the windows up when you get out and thedoors lock. It would be a nice feature, I think.Actually, it is equipped to do them. It's a computer that does all thesethings, after all. I'm sure Chevy/GMC doesn't load custom software intoeach vehicle base on options. They probably have an automated RF codingsystem at the end of the assembly line that activates only what wasordered. I don't have the equipment, knowhow, or experiance to try tohack the brains of this thing. I'm hoping someone out here does.

THe only reason Linux isn't hacked into more often is the relative lack of experts who have more than average experinece with it.

P.S.- Linux is THE most hacked platform, ask anybody in the know. WIth thousands of people connected by the open source, the vulnerabilities tend to spread like wildfire.

If Linux as a company was 1/8th the size of MS, we'd hear about the latest and greatest attack/hack/vulnerability. Since Linux is nothing more than a dying fad these days with a niche market, there's ne reason to go public on all the media outlets with news of them.
