Delphi And XM Introduce Delphi MyFi - First Personal Portable Handheld XM2GO Satellite Radio

Delphi Corp., a pioneer of in-vehicle entertainment and electronics, and XM Satellite Radio, America's number- one satellite radio service with more than 2.5 million subscribers, today announced a major milestone in consumer electronics -- The Delphi MyFi™satellite radio. The Delphi MyFi is the first personal, portable XM2GO satellite radio that delivers XM's Ultimate PlayList™ anytime, anywhere - at home, at work, in the car and now, on the go.

"The XM Delphi MyFi is the next generation of satellite radio," said Francisco (Frank) Ordoñez, President of Delphi Product and Service Solutions, and Vice President of Delphi Corp. "This month marks the 50th anniversary of the portable transistor radio, which revolutionized the audio world. Today, Delphi and XM continue their tradition of satellite radio breakthroughs with MyFi, another industry first."

The hand-held Delphi MyFi gives users the personal freedom to enjoy XM Radio's Ultimate PlayList of more than 130 digital XM channels in two ways: a "live" listening mode and a time-shifting "memory" mode. The MyFi's live mode enables users to listen live to all of XM's 68 commercial-free music channels, plus premier news, sports, talk, traffic and weather channels. MyFi's memory mode - called "My XM" -- allows users to store five hours or more of XM's outstanding content with the press of a button, even when the unit is not in use. The MyFi makes it possible to enjoy XM Radio anywhere, anytime, effortlessly.

"Delphi MyFi is a revolutionary product that dramatically expands XM Radio's appeal and potential subscriber base," said Hugh Panero, CEO of XM Radio. "Consumers have been waiting for an advanced portable satellite radio receiver that also works in the car and home. XM and Delphi are thrilled to make this product a reality in time for the upcoming holiday season."

XM also announced today that superstar Elton John will be featured in the national TV advertising campaign to launch the Delphi MyFi. The TV spot directed by award-winning music video director and photographer David LaChapelle is a humorously surreal celebrity "slice of life," which follows Elton as he travels from place to place listening to his new hit song "Answer in the Sky" from his critically-acclaimed album Peachtree Road on his Delphi MyFi satellite radio.

"The Delphi MyFi is one of the biggest things to ever happen to radio, and Elton John is one of the biggest names in music," said Panero. "We're thrilled to be working with Sir Elton, and the TV commercial is going to be an enormous hit with viewers."
