Thank you
Ahh yes, I understand.
I can only tell you that the XM module, and CF in general has come a LONG way since 1.20. XM (and now also Sirius!) has been broken out into a separate module and has a dedicated developer working on it (his name is "Scott" for the sake of conversation). Scott's taken (what's now called) the Satellite Radio module, fixed a slew of bugs and added a number of nice new features.
I too use XM 99.9% of the time that I'm in the car, so I'm pretty quick to complain about things when life goes wrong. And umm, as David will attest, I'm not quiet about it.
Right now, XM is solid in CF. There is a "resume from hibernate" issue that appears to be global to CF which is causing XM to be silent on resume (but it's easily brought back to life). David's aware of this and looking into it. But again, this isn't a problem specific to XM.
All the weird display issues, single-click issues, no-audio issues, etc in XM are fixed. I've been on the forums here, and using CF, for about 2 years and it's stronger than ever. Scott's been a Godsend for the module, and the product overall.
My suggestion is NOT to listen to just me... Jump into that worklog thread and ask the people there what they think. THOSE are the folks that use XM every day.
I do think it'd be worthwhile for David to cut a new trial version.. Like I said above, 1.47 is way beyond 1.20. I know he's pushing on towards 1.50 soon, maybe he'll do it then.
