Well today was a very interesting day for me. After discussing with my wife on what to get her father for Christmas she decided she wanted to go with Sirius. That was the easy part.
I went to my local Best Buy -- SOLD OUT wont be getting any more in till tomorrow
UGHHHH
I then went to the BB in King of Prussia, Pa and was told the same thing. Well I had to go to Delaware to pick up a big ticket item for my wife (no sales tax in DE) so I stopped at the BB in Wilmington.
I was told that they sold over 3 Cases of Sirius over the weekend. The cases are those huge displays that you see with all the units. I was told that they were expecting a shipment this am and that I could wait around. I hung out for 20 mins and talked to the sales rep. He said that Sirius was out selling XM about 10-1. He told me that most people were looking for Stern and the NFL. He also said that the people that asked about XM were turned off when they found that all of their music stations weren't commercial free like Sirius. He was nice enough to put up with all my questions while he was rather busy, so I gotta give props to the guys at Wilmington's Best Buy.
So my father-in-law will get his starmate replay and hopefully he will be thrilled with come Christmas.
