Re "why do they need airbee?"
Excellent question - and, you know, I don't have the answer! Yet! But I expect that the Airbee involvement will involve their ZigBee expertize somehow. What else!?
How? Not sure. The cars in the lot fitted out with the anti-theft system could form a network among themselves using ZigBee - but for what purpose? I, too, am looking for answers. One thought - the car lot is huge; the distance to the showroom/office is too far for the furthest car to contact the office directly; but the networking between cars permits a connection.
And here's an off the wall thought. ALL cars everywhere have this Identity module on board. Each car on the road can communicate with every other car on the road (when within the hailing distance) and form a communication system (just like a telephone cell phone network but without the phone company involved) just for cars. Why? Communication - someone will figure out a reason! lol
