If you’re busy you may find yourself walking back and forth to look at the little amber display to see who the artist / song is. I ended up aiming a cheap video camera toward the display and patching it through to a 20″ LCD panel so I can see this information from most any distance. Other problems are not enough presets (only 20). Customer service isn’t very good. As for the programming, it’s a good value for 10 bucks per month (NOTE: PRICE HAS GONE UP!). I don’t care how some of the channels – ones I WANT to like – are programmed, but there’s always something else playing. There are only so many characters available to see on the display, meaning that some song titles are abbreviated or clipped off entirely. You only get 20 ft of antenna cord, which is hardly enough but they will SELL you extensions, of course. Overall the sound quality is very impressive. If you get the kit for your car you will be in for a real treat.

I was an XM customer for 4 yrs. I used this radio during that time and it works fine. However, I no longer listen to XM. I mostly bought it for a few specific stations and last year, those stations stopped being as good.
You can manage your XM account online with one exception: You have to call to cancel your account, and you cannot call 24 hours a day; they have 9-5 Eastern business hours. Very inconvenient.
When I complained to the customer service rep that they had charged me on a credit card number that they never had (the web account shows my old card #), she literally laughed at me and told me to take it up with Amex.
Would you really want to buy a product from soneone who laughs at you when you have an issue?
Just use Pandora and save yourself the aggravation.

I bought this as a back up to my existing unit which I’ve had 7-8 years. These are 1st generation and give great service.

How can i give a review on a product that i never received, but paid for. does amazon.com like to be associated with sellers that doesn’t have any intention of giving the product that was paid for? who ever this seller is he’s a ripoff artist and i think amazon.com should review their business policies of who they do business with in the future.

I live in Bermuda and with the aiming advice it gets full signal strength and the sound is really good.
