    Kwikset's New Smart(DUH) Key Technology

    I saw this on CNN and just had to laugh. I'll leave it to D.O to really rant about this.

    Please note that the reset cradle is only available to:

    "Reset Cradle not for sale - used only by trained professionals"

    what specifically was on CNN? just the product being featured? or the reset cradle? heh, many of the folk here know what the picking community thinks of the Smart Series...
    • resistant to conventional picking
    • poorly constructed (particularly original models)
    • rather easily destroyed with brute force tools (especially earlier models)
    • trivial to "decode" for repeated covert entry and exit
    "I'll admit I had an OiNK account and frequented it quite often… What made OiNK a great place was that it was like the world's greatest record store… iTunes kind of feels like Sam Goody to me. I don't feel cool when I go there. I'm tired of seeing John Mayer's face pop up. I feel like I'm being hustled when I visit there, and I don't think their product is that great. DRM, low bit rate, etc... OiNK it existed because it filled a void of what people want."

      Nah, just saw a commercial for it. Knowing locksport folks like you, it just amused me, and I thought I would share.

        Ahh, Kwikset... I'll just leave it at that.
