Product takes 15 minutes to install (maybe half an hour more if you need to tweak the antenna angle and trim the trees to let it have a clear view of the sky). (If you buy the complete XM-Sirius subscription package, you also get all the talk radio channels). You can listen live, or the player stores 25 hours of music of your choice for playback later. You can preview the playlist by song title or artist, and delete any songs you don't want to hear. It is extremely lightweight and comes with a clippy to hold it in place on your belt. I own two of these and I think they're great.
I love this product. the price was right. It works great and it alllows me great flexiblity with work and at home.
It was so easy to use I didn't even need the instructions. I thought this radio was worth a gamble for the price. It was. I'm glad I didn't spring for the extra dollars a truely portable unit would cost. I bought the same radio for my wife a week later.
I already have an Inno that plays live XM and records up to 50 hours of programming, but I m finding I m listening to more recorded content on my walks and I listen to live XM when I m home. That said, the Nexus25 is a great device and with three units to listen back to.I find there is no shortage of recorded XM to listen to.If you can't spring for the Inno, which you can find at $70 or so here, try the Nexus, and the fact that you can buy another one of these and share the Passport ,or three or four if you are so inclined. Any XM ready unit with a slot for the passport will operate on onesubscription.
I have almost 50 hours already recorded and I know it will take me a long time to hear them back.I discovered the Nexus here for $18.99. You can only record live XM.you can't hear it live while walking. Normally I ll have it on and just record songs that I want to listen to.
Two Nexus devices for a little under $40 with one subscription and this gives me an additional 50 hours of recording time.The Nexus is the precurser to the more advanced Inno. At that price I purchased two of them, so I can have more storage space for long form shows I want to record and just to record different channels and play them back in random order. Another bonus is the fact that the Nexus uses a Passport device.
Also the screen is black and white and its smaller than the Inno and there is no tuneselect. I believe XM stopped producing these a year or so ago, but I find they are the perfect compliment to the more advanced Inno.
I am so pleased with this product, That I bought two more for a couple of friends.
