Someone sent me this and I did not believe it. So my son and I tested it and amazingly enough, IT WORKS! I could not START my new LS460, but I could unlock it thru two cell phones. I guess the signal is an audio frequency that we cannot hear.
It did not work with the FOB on my wife's 2003 Mercury Mountaineer (Ford Explorer clone), and I will soon test it on my daughter's Honda CR-V.
This is amazing:
"Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their cell phone from your cell phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away,and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk)."

Last Friday night, when we were going out to dinner, we both had one fob each in our bags. I remembered to get it out of my bag right when we came out of the car. But, she forgot. When I tried to lock the car, it wouldn't. So, she had to get the key out of hers and the car locked. So, I don't know how it's possible to lock your fob inside the car since it does refuse to lock if you leave it inside.
