XM Satellite Radio Products

Most XM radio receivers can be used both at home and in your car, but be aware you'll probably have to purchase a few accessories to make it work unless you're buying a specified "Home Kit" or "Car Kit."

For your car, the Commander MT XM satellite radio gives you a bright four-line display, a stocks / sports ticker, the "Tune Select" function which finds your favorite artists or songs, 30 channel presets and installs right into your vehicle for $179 (plus installation).

Other similar options include: the Sportscaster (for the ultimate sports fans) or the Audiovox XpressEZ (for just $70)! The Audiovox XpressEZ is perfect for the first-time XM satellite radio buyer, offering just the basic necessities - room to program in 10 of your favorite channels, a bright three-line display of artist, track and station, a car cradle, cigarette power adapter, vent clip and antenna.

There are many optional accessories available to make this a multi-functional unit that can be removed and used with the XM Radio Home Kit or Boombox audio system as well, these can be located by using any of the top search companies.

For versatile usage, the Delphi XM Roady XT is the smallest and lightest XM satellite radio available in the plug-and-play variety. For $170, you'll get all the installation options: a vehicle cradle, cigarette adaptor, swivel dashboard mount and cassette-audio adapter, along with an antenna for maximum reception.

While it's not included, you can also purchase the Roady XT Home Kit if you decide to take your unit indoors.

A key feature of your XM satellite radio is its partnership with Napster, meaning that you can download through the program with the software accompanying your purchase.

Another cool thing is XM's partnership with Audible.com, allowing you to listen to downloaded audio-books on your XM satellite radio as well. The iPod will surely have a run for its money with the new XM products on the market, catering to listeners who can't bare to part with their MP3 playlists, yet are also open to new artists and songs.
