Engadget has uncovered, in some vigorous FCC digging, that a new MyFi has come across the desk at the Commission.

Unfortunately little is known about the device because XM has requested short-term confidentiality on such goodies like internal/external photos, manuals and technical info regarding the "coupling device." Other items like schematics and parts lists that may contain "trade secrets" are wrapped in the veil of long-term confidentially. Thankfully, the short-term confidentiality only lasts for 45-days, so we should know more about this badboy by December-ish.

Now, judging from the fact that its the same part number as the 1st gen MyFi (SA10113), I'm willing to guess that this is just an updated version. More than likely to have something to do with FM transmitters or something boring like that.

Then again, XM could be updating the beloved device with beefier internals (such as a more powerful Inno-like antenna) and preparing the MyFi as its low-end (read: affordable) handheld receiver. All the while prepping a badass uber-handheld complete with a sweet touchscreen interface for us to fawn over in the year ahead. Mr. Nate Davis did afterall drop some hints about a new portable coming next year. Oh the speculation!
