Program Ford PATS key and new PCM from home?

Hey guys, anyone know if you can program Ford PATS key from home? Is there a consumer device to do that or would I need to take my car to a dealer or auto repair shop? This is for a new PCM that I might need to buy in the future and I heard you'll need to program the PCM to the original keys. Thanks in advance!

With two already programmed keys, the PATS will program a third new key, up to a maximum of 8 total ... per pg. 93 of the '08 owner's manual.

But if you are using a new PCM, you'll have no programmed keys at all so then I believe you are going to have to get a dealer to reprogram at least two of your keys to the new PCM, and then you can let PATS program the rest of your keys.
