just picked up an XM MyFi today. It is awesome. I am quite pleased. No commercials, much better sound quality than regular radio, and plenty of station choices. The myfi also can record 5 hours of programming for replay later, though I haven't played with that too much yet. Best purchase I've made in a while.

You haven't listened very long. There's tons of commercials on XM.

I also like mine, though.

its 12.95 a month, but less if you pay for more than 1 month at a time. Gets down to 10 bucks for a 2 or 3 year lockup.

Really? I've heard a couple XM related bits, but the music has been pretty constant for the most part. I was told that there are something like 30+ stations that are completely commercial free, and it seems like the others don't have too many. The ones that are not exclusively on XM probably do, like ESPN radio, but I haven't had a chance to spend that much time on those yet. What stations were you refering to?

I bought the MyFi recently. I chose it because I get all the baseball games on it. Sirius has the football package, but I get my football through Sunday Ticket.

I use the Myfi on my tractor as I'm cutting the grass. The reception is great.
