    Which Sirius PNP?

    It will have FM input (unless it doesn't come with a radio ;) ) If you have the CD changer, you could probably splice into the inputs from that (which might negate your CD changer)

    I used acorn nuts as well.. on a side note, they make it fairly easy to move the flexi (they slide well once it gets moving)

    Need a new cell phone

    For bluetooth you would have to go with AT&T, Cingular, or T-Mobile (no CDMA bluetooth phones out right now, which is what Verizon and Sprint use)... T-Mobile has (by far) the cheapest data rates, with unlimited data at something like 20-30 a month, while AT&T and cingular are more... So if...

    Did you try unplugging your cable tv? That is where my hum comes from, you can use one of the "dual transformer" methods, or, if it's a new house, complain to the cable company that the ground is bad...

    New Sirius Programming?

    I personally really like faction ("urban rock and rap") or whatever they call it... Sirius Disorder is a neat eclectic mix too... (Since none of "my" streams were taken away, I see the changes as positive)

    More frustration with companies

    Vince: To prove a 2 year contract they need a signature, a one year contract can be done by verbal agreement (at least for cell phones)... If they can't produce your signature, you can get out... It might be easier to just fax it to them since you have it, but yeah, that can be a big PITA for...

    Goodbye XM Radio

    Wow, that could be big... Aren't the "Local traffic and weather" going against the condition that they couldn't use the repeaters to provide local info?

    Best Sirius add on ?

    Dick: You might want to check around, (maybe go to a forum for you car), there might very well be a way you can tie into the CD-changer inputs, and therefore use one of the plug and play units (with a direct input, not FM modulated...), but keep your stock head unit...

    Discussion on XM vs. SIRIUS article

    John: I'm not sure if anything has changed, but at least as of a few months ago, most people I read felt that, by far, Sirius had the better techno/dance type channels... To the best of my knowledge they play full tracks, etc, and IIRC one of the streams is nothing but continuous mixing...

    SIRIUS Satellite Radio Reaches 200,000 Subscribers

    Ron: Sirius has listened to their subs in the past (at least, it looks like that), in dealing with repeats on the rock channels, and it seemed the "Pam" and "million dollar" promo's toned down quite a bit after siriusbackstage got up in arms... They seem to listen to complaints, it just...
