Default Time to throw in the towel on HD Radio !

You must have a very dull life - nothing to do but post your very
stupid remarks about HD Radio.

The auto industry is gearing up to add HD Radio to nearly every make
and model automobile within the next 3 years or so. All 2007 BMW's
now offer HD Radio as an option. For 2008, Jaguar has added the
option. Also for 2008, the new luxury car being offered by Hyundai
will have HD Radio as standard, I believe. And the list goes on.

The same nonsense was said about FM Radio, about radio itself when
television took off, about tv dinners, etc. etc. Things don't happen
overnight.

Get a life and grow up.

Not happening - Satellite Radio is taking over in-dash, with 1/4 of
new cars having Satellite as stand/optional equipment. Even Hyundai is
installing Satellite as standard in all of its models, except for the
luxery model where HD Radio remains an expensive $500 option. iPod
jack are also taking over in-dash, stupid !
