Amazon.com Product Description:
Delphi's compact SA10085 Roady2 XM satellite radio is, on average, four times smaller than competing plug-and-play models. While 30 percent thinner and 40 percent lighter than the original Roady, the Roady2 features the smallest satellite-radio antenna available, together with a built-in wireless FM transmitter for easy setup and reception in any vehicle. Just tune your car's radio to any of the unit's 12 FM frequencies and sit back to enjoy XM Radio's 67 commercial-free music channels; 63 channels of sports, talk, comedy, children's, and entertainment programming; and more than 21 channels of advanced traffic and weather information for major U.S. metropolitan areas.
Roady2 offers a convenient scroll wheel, 30 channel presets, and 10 direct-entry buttons. The two-line display offers artist, track, and channel information, and it has seven selectable background colors to achieve the look that suits your style: red, night blue, green, pink, purple, sky blue, and orange. TuneSelect will alert you when a favorite song starts playing on another channel, and the unit's versatile mounting options consist of a vent mount, swivel mount, or Velcro.
Additionally, Roady2 is the first satellite-radio receiver capable of displaying up to 20 customized stock quotes while playing any of XM's 150 digital radio channels. The influential PC Magazine gives the Roady2 five stars, calling it a "brilliant device" and naming it an Editor's Choice. The magazine praises the Roady2 for its small size and rich features.
The ticker keeps track of up to 20 of your favorite stocks while you listen to your favorite music, news, sports, and talk channels. Stock data is provided by Comstock, Inc.; stock and market index information is delayed by approximately 25 minutes.
Broadcasting live daily from studios in Washington, D.C.; New York City; and Nashville, Tennessee, at the Country Music Hall of Fame, XM Satellite Radio's 2004 lineup includes channels offering music from hip-hop to opera, classical to country, and bluegrass to blues.
What's in the Box
A Roady2 receiver with built-in wireless FM modulator (no cassette player required), a mini-micro antenna, mounting accessories, a cigarette-lighter DC power adapter, a vent-mount adapter, a cassette audio adapter (for optional cassette-player connection), three decorative faceplates, an XM channel guide, a quick-start guide, and a user's manual.

I agree with the 'positives' of other reviewers - it is a nice product, when the connections are functioning.However, after only a few months usage, the power jack of my FIRST Roady2 quickly became loose inside; and haphazardly gave power randomly on-and-off.With warrenty I received another module that lasted a little longer, but the same issue cropped up - bad connection between adapter power plug and module's jack. I've read that other Roady2 users have experienced the same defect. A Delphi associate reluctantly admitted that he's familiar with complaints of this weak link but a repair would cost me more than purchasing a new module.

This radio works great but I got tired of paying the xm radio fees and gave it to a friend.
Rating:  -
I got a Roady 2 about 2 years ago and it performed well enough that my son bought one and got one free which he gave to my son-in-law. That one never worked, mine has been plagued with poor antenna and power connections and now has completely quit. So that makes two of three dead in under two years. Reliability and performance are both poor.
I certainly won't be buying another Delphi product to replace this one. The user interface wasn't very well thought out and the limited number of channels that you could use for the FM Modulator made it have limited use in Washington DC where you could not drive from outside the Beltway to inside the Beltway without having to change the channel selection. All in all one of the most disappointing pieces of electronics I have ever purchased.
