Any idea what the Eton E1 XM radio is going to sell for when it hits the
market ???

Also...

How exactly does satellite service for portable radio work ??? Is there a
release code that you punch up into the radio once you've paid for the
service or a card with an electronic code on it that you stick into the
radio someplace ???

If they are anything like the satellite radios they sell here in Korea, they
are addressable, like a cable box. You give them the serial number or MAC
number off the receiver and they enable it over the satellite.
