APRIL FOOLS: Delphi and Orange Announce XM Radio Partnership and New Hardware

[Jason Dunn]

Orange and Delphi announced a new add-on for the SPV E200 today: an SD-card based XM Radio tuner! Yes, it's something we've all been waiting for - the ability to listen to XM Satellite Radio from our Smartphones! Pricing hasn't been announce, but it's expected come in ar around $399 USD. The other challenge is battery life, but the SD XM Radio card includes space for two AAA batteries to help offset the power drain from the Smartphone. I'm really excited about this, even if it is a little on the bulky side of things.
