Default Do you guys hang key/stuff with your key fob?

I just carry a little turbo key chain with mine, since the manual says other keys might interfere with the keyfob I try to keep as less stuff with the key fob as possible.

I keep it on my normal keychain with my other keys (6 keys total, including the IS key).

Nope! Never had any problems with locking and unlocking. I usually keep my keys inside of my back pack too...

I've got five keys, as well as two other security fobs, hangs out in the same pocket as my iphone. No issues getting into the car or starting.

For some reason, when I get out of the car the car won't respond to my key fob for atleast 5 second, even if I press the button on the door handle. The battery is brand new and everything.

i found out that if i have my phone (iphone4) in the same pants pocket with my fob key, i can't open or lock my door. If the key is right against the phone i think the phone interferes with the signals of the fob key.
