Dunno...I need/want a porto receiver like I want another bag of used golf balls...
I just want my CEO's nice in dash NAV/CD player, AM/FM, back up cam, BT, Sirius unit to be able to be 'renewed' for something less than $160 yr, for her to listen to her one freakin station.

I called again: same stonewall, even from 'retention mgr'. Biz must be good at Sirius, or they are only after the really high margin renewal to compensate for the free deals that come with new cars. Gonna let it sit and simmer for awhile as a 'former customer' and see what happens in a few days/weekish.

The Pandora app isn't the answer for her: we frequently get much less than 3G on her Droid, driving around in western NC. A buddy at my club did it for his wife and said the reception sucked and a new app update produced pop up ads in middle of tunes. And, since his wife gabbed on her smartphone all the time, the pass off/pass on for phone/BT vs Pandora, was pretty glitchy. Might be OK at the FL area, but not so hot here in the mtns.

NEway, I will quit beefing and will post again when I am successful in a less than list price renewal, or I cave in and pay Howard fookin Stern's bar bill.
