i think it will come out in about a year and be the size of the Inno with new features and retail for about $400.

Never. XM doesn't exist anymore so you will never see another new XM radio.

OK I stand corrected SIRIUSXM. I wonder if they are going to improve the portable with things like longer battery life and things like that.

SIRIUS XM will not put the R & D into a new portable satellite radio without making it dual band capable. Simply not worth it, IMO.

Based on their "divorce" from the Stiletto designer/maker, the next portable satellite radio will be:
- like the XMp3 (screen quality, menus)
- like the Stiletto (wifi enabled)
- like an iPod nano (built in 8-16gb+ of memory...only some of which can be used for SIRIUS XM content, though...damn RIAA)
- Dual band (able to subscribe to SIRIUS, XM, or both)

At least, this is my wishlist...

Add a touch screen and a 12 hour battery life and now were talking.

dude that would be so awesome if you could just take it inside of a building, they need to get a radio that can connect with a cell phone tower without the cell phone charges then i would have that very quickly

It's called an I-phone with the Sirius app.
