Delphi and XM Radio Introduce Roady2 XM Satellite Radio
Receiver
Delphi Corp., a pioneer of in-vehicle entertainment and electronics and XM Radio, America's No. 1 satellite radio service, are
introducing the new Roady2
XM Satellite Radio receiver. The Roady2 XM Satellite Radio is an all new plug-and-play receiver at the 2004 Home Entertainment Show in New York this
weekend.
With its compact design, the Roady2 XM Satellite Radio is on average four-times smaller than the
competing plug-and-play models. The unit also has a built-in wireless FM adapter
for easy connection to any car or home radio, a sleek new metallic gunmetal
colored body and a choice of seven different backlight colors. Additionally,
Roady2 is the first receiver to display up to 20 customized stock quotes.
"The Delphi XM Radio partnership has brought another breakthrough product to
market," said Joseph Damato, director, consumer electronics, Delphi Product
& Service Solutions, the aftermarket division of Delphi Corp. The Roady2 XM
Satellite Radio sets a new standard for small size and functionality - making it the clear
choice for consumers who want all the benefits of the
Roady 2
portable satellite radio receiver without the
bulk and complexity found in competitive designs."
Roady2 will join the original Roady as one of the most affordable satellite
receivers on the market when it arrives to prominent retailers this July.
"We are excited about the Roady2 XM Satellite Radio because for the first time, XM Radio listeners can
access customized stock quotes while listening to XM," said Brian Shea,
vice president, product marketing and distribution, XM Radio.
"The device works with any FM radio for simple installation."
The Roady2 XM Satellite Radio and all other XM satellite receivers offer more than 120 digital
radio channels including 68 channels of commercial free music, plus news,
sports, talk, comedy, and other entertainment programming from coast to coast.
Subscribers pay just $9.99 a month for the XM Radio service.
In addition to existing accessories, new home kits and portable audio systems
for the Roady family of products will be available at retailers nationwide this
summer.
Delphi also manufactures the critically acclaimed Delphi XM SKYFi receiver in
addition to the Roady2 XM Satellite Radio, the
best-selling portable satellite receiver in the industry, and the new Delphi CD
Audio System, the industry's first system to offer XM Radio along with
a CD/CDR/MP3 player and AM/FM tuner.
"Delphi's radios include the best selling receiver on the market
today and the industry's first portable unit," added Damato. "In fact,
three out of four XM radio listeners use Delphi hardware."
With the Roady2 XM Satellite Radio less than $120 and the SKYFi systems around $170, Delphi and XM Radio have
both the smallest and the most feature-rich assortment of products in the
industry, along with the most market competitive price today when combining
subscription and hardware costs.
