I still can't believe they don't have a tablet version.. The app works fine for my Xoom 4G but to have to pull it from my phone is not acceptable at this point. These tablets have been out plenty long enough for SiriusXM to give us a decent application.

i sent than another email asking for an update and got a standard response about the phones they support and all of the ipad versions but no android tabs. Maybe it is some contractual thing. Going to call and speak to a manager and see if i can get more info. There are now millions of android tabs out there so it is pretty stupid not to support them.

For what it's worth, SiriusXM is just poorly run. I love the product and loath the company. Before the merger with XM they were customer oriented. Since then, customer service dwindled as their stock plummeted and continues to struggle. The problem is they are top heavy with overpaid talent (read : Howard Stern) and overpriced license agreements (read: NFL). Every subscriber pays the RIAA tax directly so it's not like they are losing money from subs there. I don't have anything against Stern and the NFL - I'm a fan of both. If they don't innovate and rebuild sooner than later they are going to die off against directly competing content streamed over 3G/4G/xG. It won't be long before Android & iOS are embedded into vehicles dashboards and every car comes with a 4G connection. I find myself streaming more often with TuneIn from my Xoom than I use the SAT radio ...

I agree. Follows the change or get left behind theory. They don't 'get it' that they need to fix things or they will lose new business.

Same here, wifi only. Oh well, maybe some year they will fix this.

It is not a deal breaker for me since I have a working version on my iphone and use Pulsar on my Mac but I would probably use my Xoom much more if this were working.

Does anyone know what the difference is between the tablets that makes the app work or not? I wonder if it is a setting that can be changed or a file that can be modified to make the app think it is on a different version of the Xoom

[bigdave240]

maybe it somehow detects that there is a radio in the device, though i use it on mine all the time while in airplane mode with just the wifi enabled. that might not be the same though.

well, I finally got to a manager who pretty rudely told me that they have no plans for an app for android tablets at this time. so there it is. going to start writing letters to
Mel Karmazin

Hope others do as well. this is really stupid.

Mel is not known to listen to customers. Back in the day there were several linux scripts that were able to connect to and stream the channels. Maybe one day when it is really broken someone will bring those to light on Android for the same capability.
