I finally did it. I got XM in my car. All I gotta say is that it is awesome. So far my XM customer experience has been very good. Here are some key points:

1. It took about 15 minutes from the time I set up my billing to when my tuner got activated.

2. Clarity: CD quality sound

3. Dead spots: Haven't had any, although I'm bound to run into some. So far I've been impressed by the fact that it has worked in the parking garage where I work and in my own garage at home.

4. Works just like existing radio in such a manner you can have your favorite XM presets.

5. Antenna is low profile. It's pretty low key in fact.

For all this time, I've been so accustomed to having commercials that when I listen to the commercial free programming it feel weird, by far the best money I've spent. Well... almost. The TiVo is better.
