Nice look (I like it better than the XM version), but it just only picks up the music channels? 80% of my Sirius use consists of the sports, talk, and comedy channels.

I don't have Sirius yet, but I was hoping for a portable device that could listen to ALL channels so I could use it in my car, home or at work.

That's one of the things I don't like about their online service. The online service is part of your subscription, but it only includes the music channels. No sports, talk, weather, or comedy.

I went ahead and picked up a home kit, but I really wish I could listen to the sports and comedy channels at work without having to buy another kit.

But if Sirius mobile is music only (like the description leads to believe), then what?

Looks like 65/120 stations are music.

I think are saying the amount of commercial free music channels, it HAS to pick up all the Sirius channels as i HIGHLY doubt Sirius would allow them to sell a crippled device.
