Amazon.com Product Description
One of the best aspects of subscribing to XM radio is the ability to choose from hundreds of different types of radio programming, many commercial free. Even better, the stations you're listening to won't fade from region to region throughout the continental United States. Delphi Xpress RC offers more features to enhance your listening and operational pleasures. The most obvious is a new color screen that makes tuning a more vibrant experience. It's the industry's first plug-and-play satellite radio with a full color split-screen display and 60-minute pause and replay. The radio also lets you save up to 10 of your favorite songs to listen to later. The display is easier to read--you can view content you want, the way you want. We don't live in a black and white world, so why should our XM experience be limited to black and white? The Delphi XpressRC XM Satellite Radio includes a universal connector which allows easy movement of radio between car, home, and audio systems with compatible accessories.

fantastic rcvr....read the fine print December 29, 2008
Rhonda W. Richard (Lafayette, LA)
I got this radio for Christmas and the features far outweigh those of my old Roady2. However, be aware, it says plug and play. This only applies if you have a cassette player in your vehicle. If you do not you will NEED either the FM direct adapter, a mini jack to mini jack cable if your car stereo has an AUX jack or the Sureconnect kit. This was not very clear from any description, but it is a must have to make the XM play through your radio. Very poor instructions, otherwise it is a great piece of equipment.

This is a nice unit with multiple display types and the color really enhances the display. The 60 minute rewind feature is really nice, but it isn't as easy to rewind and fast forward within a program/segment. Be warned: The FM Modulator only works when it is plugged in the vehicle cradle (in vehicle mode) and is pretty weak. However, for those who can use a direct connection like an mp3/auxiliary jack or cassette adapter, the lineout volume level can be set to adequately send out a decent volume level.
Cool radio, but the service is not what it used to be. December 27, 2008

This is a pretty good radio. Good display. Easy to use. You need the service to use it though and it's not what it used to be. As you may know, XM has merged with Sirius, so they've combined stations. The format more or less is a bunch of "Top 40" stuff you can use on a good broadcast radio, assuming you live in a pretty good town.
if you're new to XM, I would go to the XM site and get a deal on a cheaper radio to see if you like it before investing in a more expensive receiver like this one. It's the radio and you LISTEN to it, not look at it, so what does it matter if it's black and white?
Loved the screen, poor Quality. December 24, 2008
B. Duda (Denver)
I bought this radio about 9 months ago and it has now died. Sorry but this thing has no moving parts, it is a radio for crying out loud and it stops working after 9 months?
I loved the screan, the color was fantastic and you could read it on a sunny day in your car. This is why I bought it. Also had to re-program stations and other settings when I took it from car to house on occasion. This was a real pain.
Would I buy this radio again. No.
Great Radio!! Love the color Screen!! December 24, 2008
B. Pierce (Tennessee)
This is my third satellite radio purchase and this is the best radio yet. The color display is a nice change from the earlier models. I would recommend to anyone.
