I plan to stream XM on my TREO 700p, out through the phone jack into the smart radio's jack.

I currently have a XM Pioneer Inno and can't wait to hook it up when I get the car. I will mount the antenna using a velcro square on the dash at the base of the windshield. Connection will be from the base to the aux in of the radio.

i stream recorded Classic FM from London on my Palm T|X. It plays the recorded stream from a 2gm SD card. I can get about a 24 hours on one chip, but the battery doesn't last that long.

I also have about 3.5 gb of tunes burned on six data CDs in the Radio 10 changer. ID3 tags display on the radio console. And the AM/FM radio isn't too shabby, either.

So where does the XM fit into that....

Can we get some pics from owners who have installed satellite radio? It would really help with my decision making process. Thanks, Regina

Question. Does the smart 12volt plug have power when the switch is off?
