The Pioneer AirWare is a cool accessory for an XM junkie.


Highs: You can record programming for playback later; works in your car, office or home

Lows: Messy setup; still requires a line-of-sight satellite connection

Where to buy:

Introduction

This isn't a review of XM Radio; I'm already hooked. I have it in the car, I have it at home. With Pioneer's AirWare XM2Go portable, I can have it anywhere I go thanks to 128MB of memory that packs away 5 hours of programming. That's if I'm willing to go through the hassle of hooking it up in a spot within reach of the satellite signal. I'm still working on that cost/benefit chart.

 

My review was delayed a few days because the reviewer who had it before me forgot to put the AC adapter back in the box. I'm surprised that's all he or she left out. The package comes with 18 pieces, including accessories for car and home use, headphones, battery and docks. My goal is to see how few of them I can use and still have a happy experience.
