Delphi MyFi

Does anyone have the Delphi myfi?
It's the new portable Satellite radio player.

If you happen to have it, what do you think?
I've heard the sound quality is only about as good as a 128 kbps mp3, is this true? Is it really that bad?

I'm debating between going with one of these or an Ipod in my car. I would be able to hook it up via my RCA input. Not sure what I should go with and I wanna see what everyone thinks.

Thanks fellaz!

I would go with the iPod, but Pioneer has a new one out that looks tons better in the TSX... brushed aluminum look and nice button shape. Use that if you can... pics should come soon.

I suspect that the "wearable" units only work due to the XM FM repeaters... I'd go with a real XM car unit myself.

What up Eld!

You're back man.....I'm just about to read your thread "Highlights of the CES"!!

Thanks for the info. I didn't know Pioneer has a new one coming out. Did they happen to mention a price yet?

And I think you're right about the XM FM repeaters, cuz I've heard that reception sucks inside if you don't live in a major city. I'm guessing larger cities have more of these XM FM repeaters.

The Delphi Myfi does come with a car kit with a standard car XM antenna. If I use this, do you think the reception would be close the same as the other XM car kits?

I haven't seen the pricing on the Pioneer one yet... I'm curious about one of these as well...
