A recent article in Forbes, Sirius Aims Low, has some harsh words about Sirius' receiver technology. While they tried not to be overly critical, the writer's opinion of the XACT Stream Jockey weren't exactly lovingly written.
One bit I found interesting:
Were it not for the MyFi, I'd be much more positive about this receiver. It's about the same size, and moves easily between home and car. It has a built-in FM transmitter, so you can push the sounds of Sirius programming to any FM radio nearby. This eliminates the need for at least some of the cords. Now all it needs is a battery and a hard drive or flash memory chips crammed into its body to give it the ability to record programming on the fly or on a schedule.
Sounds like the upcoming XACT ReGo. :)
(Thanks Mike!)
