XM Next Channel?

Is the only way to go to the next XM channel [not preset] to turn the Tune knob or am I missing something obvious? Obviously, voice commands are too slow too..

Ideally, the channel up button on the steering wheel would be used...

I just wish there were more presets.

10 on XM1 & 10 on XM2 would be great that way I could better use the channel up on the steering wheel. Scrolling thru 5 on the steering wheel doesn't work very well. I have mine spaced out so I can use the preset and the channel scroll to find my stations.

I use XM1 for music and XM2 for talk/news. I need more than 5 for music!

Ugh. Someone needs to get the source so we can create a better interface. There are so many improvements to XM radio alone..

- Channel up remap to next channel rather than next preset
- More presets. 10-20 per set?
- Save song
- Alert for saved song and click to change station.
- Browse stations without changing stations. This would allow you to click through, without changing the current station you are listening to.
- Remove stations from the available list [ eg weather for cities you don't live near]

etc etc etc. Anyone at Acura reading these forums? PM the source... ;-)

hahaha, dont you wish! :P if we get the source/compiler, that damn OK button in the beginning would have been LONG gone! grrrrrr

but yes... i DEFINATELY agree with the low amount of XM presets... i have so many more channels that i listen to often that its a pain in the ass (i would think 10 presets a page would be decent)

They really just need to make it like the XM SkyFi 2 where you can rewind and the Internet version of XM too....where you can scroll through songs without changing stations....I would even JUST take the features of the SkiFi or MyFi. You should be able to choose what the steering wheel does....either preset or scroll channels....
