Definitely a great investment,
by Kevin I. Medley, 2009-11-17

Ordered the skydock and received it in less than a week. This unit is worth the purchasing even if you don't activate satellite radio. The mount powers and charges your iphone/itouch, holds it securely (better than any windshield mount) and plays your itunes / movie audio through your car radio.

Works perfectly with both my iphone and ipod touch.

There are no problems installing this unit in my BMW Z4 it fits perfectly but you have to push really hard to get the unit to go all the way into the 12v accessory socket. This is because there is a rubber grommet on the end of the sky dock plug which fits very very tightly and holds the skydock securely in place. The flexible connector allows perfect location of screen for viewing.

I have been using the integral fm modulator to connect to the radio and it works perfectly. The XM app controls the radio beautifully - this is how a satellite radio should work.

Definitely a worthwhile purchase.

 

Great product and Xmas gift !!!,
by Adonis 997, 2009-10-14

I just got mine at Best Buy like these other people. I love the product and the sevice. $1 per song at apple vs unlimited amounts of content for a small monthly fee (no brainer). This is the only gift I'll be buying for people. I know people will be using this for years to come.

 

IT WORKS!!!!,

I have had the XM SkyDock for over a week now and feel I can give an honest opinion. This iPod Touch / iPhone docking system allows you to listen and or watch your iTunes library and all that XM Radio offers. There are two ways to get the tunes to your vehicle's sound system. The new Sirius XM PowerConnect which transmits the music wirelessly to your FM enabled radio and sound system. There is a wried auxiliary in cable included and this method eliminates the need for setting up unused FM channels in your area and the sound quality is a little better.

You will get full functionality of the iPhone or iPod and the SkyDock charges either. There are three spacers included that are for the iPhone and Ipod with and without a case. The XM channel line up speaks for itself and I personally do not understand anyone that spends time in a vehicle that does not have Sirius or XM. Back to the SkyDock; like all Apple products it just works. It took me less than two minutes to set up the SkyDock in my truck. The XM antenna is magnetic and will stay on the roof of your vehicle with no problems or you can Velcro the antenna to you dashboard for the ultimate portability between vehicles.

You can tag songs for purchase. You can set up alerts for a specific song or artist. You can follow your stocks and sports team scores. You can set up alerts for your favorite XM shows or when a sports team is starting a game. Game schedules are also scrolled in the portrait mode and scrolling was not necessary in the landscape mode.

 

The I-Sirius XM receiver that truly completes the Iphone!,
by Harikleia81, 2009-10-17

This product simply allows one of the most intricate and exciting products to finally have the kind of entertainment it deserves. This endless amount of media transmitting through an existing signal is truly magnificent. The sleek functionality of the Iphone operations and the well thought out format are mind blowing and addictive to the user as the format for selecting/discovering channels is flawless. It would be nice to be able to pause and record like the stiletto but the functionality of the IPHONE is ten times better. I will tag songs and buy them.

The other out of control feature is tagging Artist. Tagging artists alerts you when they are playing on any station. A bubble pops up on the screen and all you have to do is hit accept and you are on that station. My stocks are on display full time on a 15 min delay but that is okay. Also updates on my Yanks and Rangers with scores and game times up to the minute with consistent updates.

The scary part is the only thing that can improve at this point is the APPS. Sirius Xm content is the best out there and there is no denying that.

 

Just terrific,
by Kelly, 2009-10-21

What a gem this little thing is. Plug it into your cig lighter, attach your iphone, presto. I use the aux cable (ran the wire into my ash tray and into the back aux port on my Kenwood receiver so it is not "hanging") and the sound is crystal clear. Best part is when you get a text or an incoming call, the iphone alerts you. For an incoming call, the sound dims so you can answer the call! So much better than attaching a third party radio to the dash. Elegant, easy to use, just terrific. Recommended highly.
