It appears from a letter written to the FCC by a certain Michael Hartleib that satellite receivers may already be capable of receiving both Sirius and XM with a simple firmware update. That would be a good thing. I would renew my contract (my car has an XM receiver) if true.

I think a person would have to choose the Onkyo Integra DTX-8.8 as their audio and video receiver. What other device could possible connect so many different devices without reaching critical mass? And, note that I’m assuming this baby doesn’t reach critical mass, an assumption for which I have no independent evidence.

There’s not much else to say, really. Just look, drool, and then cry because you won’t be able to afford its $2,692 price tag when it’s released in July.
