Anyone know if XM is developing a application for the iPhone? I know there is the uXM but it requires a jail break phone and I am getting a new 3g.

Should be free if you have an XM account. I would love to get O&A on my iPhone without having to carry around my xm radio.

This is not true if its the link he posted above. The reason why I say that is because I've got the same service (or demoed) it on my Blackberry and they wanted to charge me more on top of what I pay. I complained and was told it was not XM but a 3rd party company who is licensed to stream out the audio and your paying for that even if your a current XM customer.

Download the FREE Pandora App and then you won't give a rat's patoot about paying $13/month for Sirius or XM.

theres no reason XM cant make their own app, charge a minimal fee, and put it on iphone
but logic doesnt always win out, does it?

Sirius Rocks. I hope there will be an app that can play the sirius stations like it does on my laptop now. That way I can listen to Derek & Romaine in the evenings :)

Combine Pandora and AOL Radio, both free apps and you have quite a bit of content, including sports and a lot of other stuff.

Not saying it is better or worse than satellite, just saying it is a pretty awesome collection of content to play on the iPhone for people who like to listen to a myriad of things on the radio.

Yeah but between XM and Sirius I have about 300+ channels to search myself, plus numerous other advantages, you cant compare IMO
