Car Audio Forumz - The #1 Car Audio Forum - Pioneer Inno for Xm...... GO GET ONE NOW!

I got mine in the mail about a week ago from the states, bought it off ebay for about $300 and holy crap this is the single greatest invention EVER! Kicks my ipods ass...... crappy thing is that Future SHop wants like $500 for one :thumbsdow :ohwell:

Ive been playing with it lots and still am finding things out about it, 1gig of RAM to store any XM programming you want, or MP3’s that you can input into it from your computer.

Ive cut & pasted this from another site found here

Let’s discuss the Pioneer Inno and Samsung Helix first;

These units feature a super-crisp, full color screen that very smoothly scrolls all artist / song titles and info extras. In the background there is a very nice wallpaper that changes with the category of channels that you are listening to, as well as nice new channel logos for each channel.

The units are significantly smaller than the current XM2go devices and feature about 1 GB of RAM to store any XM programming you want, or MP3’s that you can input into the units from your computer. This memory can be allocated in any way between the two.

You can start recording at anytime that live reception is possible, and if you were listening to the channel before the song started, and figured you wanted to record it, the unit is smart enough to grab the entire song form the beginning for you.

You have the option of recording just the song, continuously recording the channel, or scheduling recordings. Its up to you. You are only limited by the available space in memory. You can set up to 99 recording "sessions" anytime (up to 1 year) into the future, or by daily or weekly events. Once your songs are recorded, you hit the mode button and you can search through the recordings by channel, artist, or category. This makes it very easy to find the music you want, and keep it fresh by recording new stuff daily from your favorite XM channels. Best of all, you can now FAST FORWARD AND REWIND within a song!!!

Want to get the music off of your Inno or Helix? Great. Sign up with XM+Napster and you will be able to bookmark songs you have recorded for legal purchase and download to your computer. Support the artists! They work hard to give you the entertainment you enjoy so much. Songs recorded on these devices do not expire, and can be held as long as you desire in the units. Individual tunes can be deleted also. This was a big gripe with the original XM2go family.

The menus are intuitive and very easy to navigate. Up, down, and the ((( ))) button to select, hit left and it takes you back to the previous menu. This is definitely an improvement over the XM2go’s menu system that uses the scroll wheel.
