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...

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.
