Sirius XM SkyDock
Super Cool!!
Written by TW from Old Hickory
Oct 26, 2009
The SkyDock is "super cool!" as my wife likes to say. It's the best satellite radio experience yet. They made it incredibly easy to setup. Plug the SkyDock into the cigarette adapter. Plug your iPhone into the SkyDock. Tune your FM radio to 88.1. At this point you can already play your iPod library or any streaming radio app through the FM transmitter. It's that easy! To get XM satellite radio, just a few more steps. Plug in the antenna. Download the free SkyDock app from the AppStore. Call or go online to setup your account. That's it! The SkyDock app is very polished and is really easy to navigate while driving. If your looking to add satellite radio to your car and you already have an iPhone/iPod Touch, the SkyDock is absolutely the best way to go!! …More

XM SkyDock
Written by MP from Mount Vernon
Oct 25, 2009
A great product. The sound quality using the recently FCC approved XM PowerConnect technology is amazing. Coupled with the free XM Sirius application on your iTouch, it's very user friendly, with far more features than any other XM/Sirius radio on the market. Plus, it's only a few finger touches away from playing all the music downloaded on your iTouch. …More

Skydock has poor reception
Written by PM from Burlington
Dec 18, 2009
I bought a Skydock to put in a 2010 Mini Clubman. Was very ecxited to find something that would work with my ipod. Installed the dock using the XM antenna supplied and got a very intermittent signal. Drove around to see if it would improve but it didn't. I ordered an extension cable so I could use the built in antenna on the Mini. It came in yesterday. Was very unhappy to discover that that the signal still didn't improve. In fact it was worse. Maybe I got a bad unit. In any case, it's going back today. I'm giving it two stars only because the concept is great. …More
