I also have been wanting to hook it up. It is time to upgrade the system in my car anyway.

I only know what I've read (http://www.moviepoopshoot.com/onehand/81.html), but it sounds pretty sweet.

I wanted to get it too, and I really need to get a new deck in my car, and only some come XM-ready. Do you still have to get the big antenna on your car, or what is the deal with those?

I don't think so, the one on my Dad's ride is no bigger than a cell phone antenna.

Is his deck XM-ready though? I imagine either way the antennas have gotten smaller. I just didn't want to have to get one period...

Well, I got Sirius radio over the weekend for my birthday. And damn is it sweet. Everyday this week on the way to work, Run DMC has been on the Old School Rap station, different songs each day. The beauty is that even though I like Run DMC, I don't have to listen to it. I can find something else that is just as good. It is really a struggle to decide between the two or three songs that I really like that are all on at the same time. Such torture. I've only been on like 10 stations so far, and I've set 7 of them on the presets. Getting to, and from work has become so much more enjoyable. I've already begun to cuss less often because a large part of my stress, crappy music on the radio, is now gone. God Bless America.

Sirius is way better than XM because XM has commercials.

I don't have any XM-perience, but Sirius seems so good that I can't see XM even coming close. That may just be my closed mind talking, though.
