Today I went to the NY Auto Show and checked out XM's displays. They had two radios that you could play around with, but it was so crowded that I didn't get a chance to try them out. However, I managed to get a pamphlet, which had a list of all the XM channels and all the models of cars that will come equipped with XM in 2003. BTW, Dish Network had a display there, too.
