i got mine for my birthday (TAO XM2go) i love it. There is no reason to hang your head in shame, just say "i told you so, everyone." Honestly, it is a great thing the unit goes in the car, the house and the streets. Perfect.

<p>I have the Roady2, MyFi and Inno. Only the Inno is active now. Got the R2 really cheap as my first radio, then I wanted something portable for work and got the MyFi for about a hundred, I kinda beat the shit out of it by banging into things and wearing it in my back pocket (messed up the jack cause I didn't have enough headphone slack), so I got an Inno.</p><p>I like the Inno best, but the MyFi is still kickass.&nbsp;</p>

I can truly join you in your shame, as I went to Wal Mart just yesterday and bought a myfi.&nbsp; I had been listening online only till now and my job now doesn't allow radio time during the day.&nbsp; I tried my first recording session today but read (too late) that the power had to be attached to the unit for it to come on, even with a full battery.&nbsp; Better luck&nbsp;tomorrow perhaps.&nbsp; I haven't driven around with it yet but have had it in the car and it works fine.&nbsp; If I hold it in the right place in the house I can get a signal without an antenna, so maybe the rumors of poor reception are somewhat unfounded.&nbsp; I didn't see the myfi only package (I'm assuming that's what you got for $100--mine was $175 from a&nbsp;Wal Mart in NJ) but this one came with home/car/computer connections.

<p>Well since I completely called myself out for my stupid ways, I'll just give an honest update.</p><p>This thing is fucking great.&nbsp; I am sitting here listening to the show like I always did, loving Ron and Fez like I have been for years.&nbsp; Skipping right back Andreas Cantor and Bodog.net bullshit, getting to the good stuff.&nbsp; I paused it to take a shower, then went right back into it.&nbsp; Now when I'm done listening to the show, I'll just&nbsp;use my remote and turn back to regular XM programming.&nbsp; Gotta admit, this is pretty swank.</p>

I gotta check the Hackensack Target. It's near work and usually cheap! WalMart blows. Even for 100 bucks!

Don't forget to "clear my xm" before trying to record the next show. You can fit a
couple of shows in memory, but if you don't clear it and run out of room you won't
get the new show. It doesn't record over old stuff.

Thanks Whistlepig, even though I only had one recording on there I just cleared it.&nbsp; I was listening to the show again, but I dont need it right now.&nbsp; The midnight replay is on, so I cleared it.&nbsp; All set up to record again tomorrow.

I've filled the memory all the way up before and forgotten to clear it and my
scheduled shows didn't record. I have a Pioneer AirWare so maybe it's different
than other MiFis.

Well I have the Delphi one.&nbsp; Either way, I don't need to keep the shows for anything so when I listen to them I'll erase them and set it up for another recording.

i have the TAO xm2go, it will get rid of the old stuff for you, but it is a pain in the ass to look through everything to find what i didnt listen to already.

<p>In Portland, OR, MyFi reception is great when I'm outside, (on my bike,)&nbsp;and at my house I just need to put it in a windowsill and it gets great reception.&nbsp; The car reception isn't superb, but I don't have a car kit set up or anything.</p><p>When I am in the post-apocalyptic bunker where I work, I get nothing without the antenna.</p><p>I am on my second MyFi because of an unfortunate incident where I threw my first one under an SUV, because you should not try to&nbsp;mess with stuff in your bag whilst in motion,&nbsp;but it does still work- the jack is a little flaky, though.&nbsp; It's a little trooper!&nbsp;</p><p>Regards, Virginia</p>
