Default alarm experts: is this alladin alarm really that good?

http://www.groupbuycenter.com/buy.asp?row_id=4132

very nice looking here's the specs:
When an intrusion is attempted to your armed vehicle by opening a door or applying impact, your Remote Control quickly illuminates its wide LCD screen automatically, flashed graphic icon indicating the triggered point, emits a continuous loud warning beep sound or even vibrates itself intensely to call your immediate attention while the vehicle gives off a blast of alarm sound and flashes its turn signal lights.
You can command the Aladdin 2000® system what you intend it to do or to identify the system's status, with a click of button, while confirming each graphic icon displayed on the LCD screen or hearing each unique melody sound from the Remote Control.

What's more, you can easily program most of the features to your preference on the Remote Control, by verifying the icons or figures displayed on the LCD screen, with a couple of button press.

With Aladdin 2000® you can also safely start the engine, pre-heat or pre-cool your vehicle remotely even from inside your home or at your programmed time for your comfortable drive in simmering summer days or frigid winter mornings.

Different from other similar bi-directional alarm system, Aladdin 2000® is designed so that the Remote Control actually does more than 'Two-Way' communication with the System Module in the vehicle. They make prior exchange of information on the system's current status, incredibly enough, before actual transmission of command signal, at the press of a button, to minimize any operational error and, at the same time, to provide a surest way of protection against any illegal attempt of code grabbing.


Main Features & Advantages
PROGRAMMABLE STARTING :
You can program the engine to automatically start at any time during the day or night and changing the programmed start time is easy.
ALARM SYSTEM CODE PROTECTION :
The Aladdin's alarm system is designed with a random frequency transmitter and receiver to prevent "code grabbing" , the illegal copying of your alarm system's security codes.
HIGH TECHNOLOGY ANTENNA :
The system is equipped with an extremely efficient antenna, a ceramic antenna. The same type used for satellite communications and in many other types sophisticated communications equipment.
HIGHLY READABLE DISPLAY :
The LCD display has three color icon graphics and alphanumeric characters. Additionally, the display's Indigo back light is very visible in darkness.
ONE TOUCH ETIQUETTE MODE :
The remote control has a mini vibration motor integrated into it and is activated instead of the audible sound when the vehicle is tampered with. This feature is useful in important meetings or loud environments where the alarm sound would be disturbing or not heard.
SUMMARY :
1. Clock on remote
2. Personal alarm clock on remote
3. Programmable remote start time. Example: You can set it to start
at 6:30 AM. 4. User functions selectable via remote.
5. Remote lock out. Stops possible tampering with settings or remote
6. 3 different settings for the cold start feature.
7. Auto re-arm. Automatically re-arms after disarming if no entry
points are opened within 15 seconds.
8. Quick Stop feature can be set for as little as 3 minutes for turbo
timer application
9. 5 selectable siren patterns. Including silent option.
10.Vehicle finding feature (NOT PANIC)
11. Coded Valet switches. User may change code.
12. Selectable siren duration for 2nd stage of shock sensor and may be set to OFF. Example: 1st stage is 5 seconds for warn away. 2nd stage is selectable 10, 20, 30 and 60 seconds or may be set to OFF.
13. Aux input for other programmable remote start timers.

i think the Compustar is better than the Aladin cause you can get an extended range antenna and it doesnt have that retarded looking box you have to mount on your dash. There are other reasons but those are the ones that come to mind first.

haloseven....try doing a search on compustar or alladin. you can also do a search on "teken"

in my opinion and experience (over 10 years in car audio/security) i would stay away from companies that don't have a proven track record (i.e. compustar, alladin). from seeing these units up close and from teken's comments, the quality is well below the other established companies. also, compustar has had problems with getting FCC approval on their stuff. i'm not sure where they stand now but stating in the past that your products are FCC approved when they're actually not doesn't give me a warm-fuzzy feeling about the company. seems a little shady to me....

stick with the established companies.....DEI (Viper, Sidewinder, Python, Clifford and Avital), Alpine, Crimestopper, etc.

also....with CES 2002 around the corner, i'd wait to see what new stuff is coming out.

What do you guys think would be the best pager or 2 way system,i have a DEI pager,but it totally sucks,i have no range and no LCD just coded numbers.I need somthing that will give me a 1/2 mile range consistantly?And i like the LCD idea,doesn't matter as much as the security but its a nice option.
