I use my Plextalk pocket as my internet radio.

Hi Harvey, 

Well, I just called and spoke with the folks at XM, and they call it an
internet radio because you are listening to XM over the internet via the
tabletop radio.  However, it does not allow you access to all of the
internet stations available--only XM.  Since I already have XM and only use
two or three stations that's not going to work for me.  I wish I could find
someone who has tried the Logitech or similar radios.  I think I'm going to
give C. Crane a call and see what they can tell me.  I'll keep you posted. 

Thanks. 

Kris

I am told that the Sirius XM table top radio is an Internet capable radio. 
One person who has it who is on a Philmore list I am on is quite happy with
it.  He says it weighs 6.3 pounds and he can go anywhere in his apartment
and listen to anything he wants to, but I believe his wife had to help him
set it up.  But if you want more information about it, you can contact
Sirius XM radio at: 1-800-985-9200.  When he got it, the price was $149.95,
but I don't know if that still holds.  He also says it works with either
Sirius or XM services.
Harvey
