Love your Sirius XM subscription (SIRIUS XM RADIO INTRODUCES THE FIRST DEVICE TO RECEIVE LIVE SATELLITE RADIO CONTROLLED BY THE iPOD TOUCH AND iPHONE), but hate the fact that the iPhone app won’t let you listen to Stern? Well, the Sirius XM SkyDock can help. At least in your car. Sirius XM’s SkyDock is basically a standalone satellite radio receiver with an iPod connector—but it’s the only way to listen, to space radio on your iPhone or iPod Touch, for now It functions as a vehicle mount and charger for your iPhone or iPod touch and as a satellite radio receiver that uses the iPhone’s screen for control.
Using patent-pending PowerConnect technology, it lets you broadcast your music over the vehicle’s wiring, but also offers an auxiliary output, and lets you listen to any XM channel, as well as the Best of Sirius — including Stern, SIRIUS NASCAR Radio, and Playboy.
The XM SkyDock works fine with SIRIUS XM Premium Online App (iTunes link), which allows subscribers to receive SIRIUS XM’s Premium Internet service on their iPhone and iPod touch when they are out of the vehicle and on-the-go, at home, or at the office.
Sirius XM SkyDock will be available for $120 at the end of this year.
