E1 or Satellit 900
 

I was under the impression the E1 was a brand spanking new designed radio.
(I'm not involved in SW as most of the posters here so my misunderstanding
should be expected)

The following two links show a Satellit 900 and the E1. Other than XM and
perhaps some LCD differences what is the hoopla regarding the new E1? Is it
just because of the XM capability?

Understood!

Few radios bring big innovations in design, so I wouldn't criticize the
E1 on that score. It's a new Eton model that has a relatively unique
collection of features. Now, we must of course simply laugh at the idea
that outfitting the E1 with XM is any kind of 'breakthrough', but the
E1 is a new model and it will appeal to some people. End of story.

As for the hoopla, I'm as puzzled by it as you are.
