Awesome!
I love this product and use it every day in my car. I bought a second kit so I can transfer it between my two vehicles. I would recommend it to anyone.

Better for the Home
Installation and activation was simple. The XpressR funtioned as advertized. I opted to connect to my car stereo via the AUX input rather than the FM antenna method.
In my neihborhood, leaving the XpressR in the car is out of the question. Although the cradle works well, it doesn't lend itself easily to frequent removal and replacment of the module. I also (quickly)grew tired of seeing the cigarette lighter power wire, AUX input wire, and antenna wire dangling from the XpressR.
Long story;short, I bought another XM receiver, the XM mini, that connects to the back of my "XM ready" head unit. It's a much cleaner look and better security. Warning: each receiver requires it's own $ub$cription. With the aid of an RCA splitter, I connected the XpressR to the Home Stereo. XM indoors and out.

Excellent XM radio with 30 presets
This isn't as fancy as the color model available, but has 30 rather than 10 presets and is less expensive. It works very well in both my car and at home (home kit used). Highly recommended!

Works great, but a bit overly complex for automobile use
This receiver was a snap to install in my Honda Civic. I chose it over the option of a dealer-installed unit (heheh, he said 'unit') because (1) Honda dealers apparently install the XM antenna inside the windshield, which is far from optimal and (2) I don't care to pay $700 for radio & installation.
It works great, though I don't utilize any of the advanced features: I'm more of a set the favorites and use them type of person. Viewing anything more than just the current station while paying adequate attention to traffic seems kind of difficult. I would have purchased a lesser-equipped model, if it weren't for their relatively poor reviews.
The display can be set to display artist & title with very large text, which is great for viewing with ease.
A must-have for automobiles with AUX plugs is 3.5mm Stereo Cable - 3ft.. The cable has right-angle jacks, which help the unit blend in without messy wires.

Definitely worth the money, and a wonderful product.
I purchased this a week ago as a birthday present for my boyfriend. He loves it, and so do I.
It arrived in a timely manner, in intact packaging. I had a friend who installs car audio hook this up for me, and it only took the knowledgeable person about 20 minutes to do so.
The unit itself is not TERRIBLY sturdy/durable looking, and is plastic, but really, what are you going to be doing with it that it needs to be more sturdy than that?
The sound quality is great in the car - of course, this depends on your car's speaker system, but there is no hiss or feedback. With the instruction manual, it was easy to navigate using this thing, and get the hang of operation/programming.
All in all, a great product for 200 channels of commercial-free radio. I reccommend it, and the birthday boy LOVED it.
