Default S5 key or cell phone

[align=left]I was reading about the new S5 key today on the internet and was delighted to find out that it would be used to store important data about the car. While watching a video today on Youtube.com I saw what appeared to be a "cell-phone" sized key. This is the video that I saw: http://youtube.com/watch?v=3qpid62HeVA

At 55 seconds through the clip you'll see him flash what appears to be the "new key" for the S5. Is this really the actual size of this thing? I searched the internet to try and find a picture of it but couldn't find anything. Has Audi really started making cell phone sized keys ?

it looks like that would be the key, it appears that you place i in the center by the shifter like a SAAB.

Meh. It's close to the size of the current switchblade keys. And it inserts in a slot in the dash to the right of the wheel. Then you can either push a button on the console or push on the key to start it up.
