A way to keep an eye on all your bikes

I don't have an iphone but there are some nifty ways to use it.
Keeping an eye on all your bikes, for one.
These folks have quite a stable.

That would make a great selling point for the app.

However, technology is a double edged sword. If the bad guy had been using any number of 'scanner' apps that monitor police/fire/EMT/Public Service frequencies, he'd been gone before the cops showed up. Fairly sure some of my neighbors were listening to something similar when they were shooting off fireworks illegally- dispatch broadcasted a complaint call and the fireworks were silent until the responding LEO stated the area was clear and went on to the next complaint. (I was listening using the 5-0 Radio app).
