XM’s Skydock Is The Perfect Companion To The iPhone
Early this week we saw Rhapsody hop on board the iPhone train with the announcement of their streaming app (now pending). While XM/Sirius has had an app for sometime now, the satellite radio company is ready to take yet another leap in displaying their devout allegiance to Apple’s iPhone/iPod.
The XM Skydock is probably best described as a satellite radio head unit without a faceplate. That’s where the iPod Touch and iPhone come in. By snapping either one into the Skydock’s clutches and firing up the XM/Sirius app, subscribers can receive full blown, live satellite radio. It’s intended for use in the car as the flexible stalk features a cigarette lighter compatible plug. XM has also tossed in a Magnetic Mount Antenna and an Aux cable, that is assuming your car’s head unit has the appropriate input.
The XM Skydock will launch this Fall for $119.99 and will probably attract a fair number of XM’s 18.5 million subscribers.
