CompactFlash SIZED Card XM Tuner $30-$40
 

I have no idea if this will work on HCH II, but if it does, it could be worth waiting for.

A handful of new portable devices can be tested at XM Radio's exhibit.

http://blogs.ocregister.com/gadgetre...nerchipsml.jpgComing out later this summer, an easy way to tune into XM. Rather than the bulky tuners, XM will sell a "tuner chip" about the size of a CompactFlash card for $30. This will give any of your XM-ready products - a car stereo, home stereo system, standalone XM box - the XM service. You'll also need the home kit, which is a docking station and cord to plug into the audio product. That will cost another $30 or $40. Expect this later this summer.

I know Tamara through work (we've presented our products to her before). I will try to e-mail her and see if she can give me some contacts at XM to get more details...

Does anybody else here know more about this?

The title of this thread is a bit misleading. Isn't it an XM tuner the size of a CompactFlash Card and not a CompactFlash Card XM Tuner? Will it fit into a CompactFlash Card slot?

You're probably right. I was reading alot about SD add-ons for cameras to integrate-in wi-fi and probably filed this under that. Oh well, at least it will be less obtrusive, though I am now a bit baffled as to how you can tune it without a display of some kind. Any ideas?
