    Default Is it Time to Say R.I.P. to Any Chances of Seeing uSirius?????

    It has been a month and a half since the last update. Is it time to stop checking for updates and let it go????

    With free radio apps like AOL Radio and Pandora there isn't a dire need for uSirius anymore although I do admit it would be a nice addition for those of us that subscribe.

    I do not know if you have tried any of this, but here is a link to a site that has a beta version of the iPhone app: Listen to Sirius on the iPhone - Orbitcast

    Here is another site that shows the project is still alive: uSirius 1.0 Release Candidate 8 | Millard Software

    Here is another site that shows how to set up streaming of Sirius: How to Get Sirius Satellite radio to work on your iPhone | saveonphone.com

    And finally here it is from the Apple Support site itself: Apple - Support - Discussions - Listening to XM and/or Sirius Radio ...

    Apparently it requires a PC to setup.

    I wonder what is going to happen now that XM and Sirius are the same company?

    Thank you for ypur response. Sadly all of the uSirius info that the links you included take you to will only work with iPhones running software below 2.x

    Millards' site (the creators of uSirius) was where I was getting my updates and hopes up that the app would be available but as I mentioned, the last post was on sept. 8th and I received a response from them 3 weeks ago saying that it would be out any day. And here I sit waiting and waiting and waiting...............

    Sorry they didn't help. I have an XM subscription, but I use it with the receiver they sent me. Hopefully things will go your way

    Those apps are nice but I would like to have Howard Stern "on the go"...
