Thread: XM Sat Radio for your carputer

Not a bad deal...Would be pretty slick...

Damn you. Now I have to spend $69

Jk. Great find I'll have to pick one up.

I have used XM in my brother-in-law's car and it really is great. The computer interface makes it better. Down in that link I posted is a link to the xm page with a demo. Here's the link:

It looks pretty good.

I saw this today too, I was just about to post but Jeff beat me to it. This would be a great thing to integrate with a car computer and it also makes it easier to do away with head units completely.

I've had XM in my car for over a year now and it's a pretty nice service.

I sent them an email asking for a programmer's interface.

Let's you play games and surf the web without restriction, while listening to 100 channels of digital radio

Only 9.99 a month, I wonder how fast it is.

yea i saw that too but figured it mean restriction due to wasting bandwidth listening to music

it doesnt use ANY bandwidth, it doesnt connect to the internet.
This device doesnt let you surf the web, it is simply a PC satellite radio tuner.
I assume they were talking about surfing the web without slowing your existing connection or cluttering up your screen. (Referring to PC users)

i'm just curious, how exactly does xm radio activation work? does it have an acces card or a code or something to make it work?

I'm sold, I needs it, my precious
