XM Satellite Radio Receiver by Delphi Approved by FCC

Delphi announced it has received the final necessary approvals from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) authorizing the sale of its latest XM satellite radio receiver, the SKYFi3, to the public.

"Delphi officially introduced SKYFi3 to the market last week and early demand for the product has been tremendous," said Francisco (Frank) Ordonez, president, Delphi Product & Service Solutions. "With its impressive list of features, the SKYFi3 sets the new standard for plug-and-play systems."

While the SKYFi3 is 65 percent smaller than the previous generation product, Delphi says it maintains nearly every benefit. Optimized for the vehicle, the SKYFi3 receiver comes with a car dock included. SKYFi3 also offers an optimum balance of compact size, screen readability and portability outside the vehicle.

In addition, the SKYFi3 can store and manage up to 10 hours of XM programming through non-removable internal memory, as well as an unlimited number of MP3 files through optional and removable microSD cards. The SKYFi3 also has the largest 9 line display in its class and mounts vertically or horizontally using a low-profile car dock.

The Delphi SKYFi3 will be available for the holidays at select retailers with an expected retail price of $229.
