Sirius XM SkyDoc For Apple iPhone

This week Sirius XM introduced the SkyDoc for iPhone and iPod Touch. The Skydoc is anr accessory that plugs into your car’s cigartee lighter so you can enjoy Sirius XM radio from your iPhone via your cars sound system. Of course in order to use the Skydoc you must first have the Sirius XM app downloaded on your phone. The SkyDoc will give you access to pouplar channels such as Better yet, it gives users access to all XM and”The Best of SIRIUS” channels, even those the company infamously excludes from its online feed, like Howard Stern, MLB Play-by-Play and NFL Play-by-Play. Here’s what Serious XM has to say about the new accessory:

“XM SkyDock will allow millions of users to add live SIRIUS XM Radio capability to their iPod touch or iPhone while in their vehicle,” said Bob Law, Group Vice President and General Manager, After Market Division, SIRIUS XM Radio. “XM SkyDock makes their favorite programming from XM and ‘The Best of SIRIUS’ available to iPod touch and iPhone users anywhere they drive, coast to coast.”

In my opinion I guess this is good for users with cars that don’t have Sirius XM. Most new cars come with this feature so the accessory really isn’t necessary. It will be interesting to see if the SkyDoc takes off like Sirius XM thinks it will.
