XM2go is XM Satellite Radio's line of portable "walkman-like" receivers.


XM2go models

1st Generation Players

  • The MyFi, from Delphi.
  • The AirWare, from Pioneer.
  • The Tao, from Giant.

2nd Generation Players

  • The Inno, from Pioneer.
  • The Helix, from Samsung.

Unit Specifications

All first generation XM2go models have identical internal components manufactured by Giant International for XM. Each is assembled by secondary manufacturers, and housed in chassis of their own design.

Second generation XM2go models add a color screen with mp3 storage capability compatible with Napster using a click-to-buy feature.

Technical Information

The MyFi series has a "My XM" function that allows for scheduled recording similar to a TiVo manual recording for XM Radio progrmamming. Manufacturers have complied with RIAA demands to not allow transfer of programming from the units to other mediums. Additionally previously recorded programming is only accessible with a payed subscription to XM radio. Once service is cancelled previously recorded music will be unplayable from the unit.

Fixes

Few issues have been reported, however some units have experienced playback issues when attempting to listen to "My XM" recordings. The problem can be remedied by powering off the unit, disconnecting any external power sources, and removing the battery for 10 seconds. If it does not remedy the problem a full hardware reset may have to be used with is found behind the battery on the top left of the unit.
