Nice. Here in Toronto we also use a simple system that our members created:
http://code.google.com/p/cerberus-prox/
It is a simple system based on a small PIC system and a HID reader that we got cheap from eBay. All our members have a card or fob and we use this on our outside door. (Combined with a keycode-lock)
You can find all the code and schematics there.
