Does it have a good display for showing the sat radio info?

Here is a shot of mine;

Is that the standard stereo that came with the xB, or the upgraded stereo ? I test drove a Xd, and ended up ordering one later. The salesman, and I talked about both Slacker, and sat radio. He never even mentioned anything about asking me if I wanted sat radio in the car. Isn't it available with Scion ? Eventually I said that I disliked the service, but prior to that he never tried selling me on it. Maybe that is just part of the no pressure sales style of Scion.

That is the premium stereo which was released for the 2008 model year, though I think it is the same for the 2009 model. I was able to upgrade my 2006 radio to this model. Bought it off Ebay for a few bucks and could not be happier. I already had the xm sat radio option, so for me it was just basically doing a swap out.

Since you don't care for sat radio I think the slacker service via the aux-input would serve you best.

Thanks. I agree. Sat never crossed my mind. Was just curious.

They must have just started offering they lifetime sub on the XM side because I didn't see it when I went to reactivate my Roady2 on the 4th...

That's what I got. Three year sub for XM and BOS...

Maybe I can change it over like they do on the Sirius Side...

Its in the last couple of weeks. They will pro-rate your unused sub toward it so you would only pay a bit more. Same restrictions as Sirius with regards to transfers, etc.

I signed up for a year of XM and BOS. What channels can the BOS shows be found on XM?
