I agree that Ford's support isn't nearly as strong at this point. But that will change quickly if they see GM having success with the product. I really don't see XM having any substantial advantages over SIRI in the long term. History has shown that the first mover doesn't have a huge long term advantage in the consumer product arena. The only thing that could dramatically change the picture is if Ford, Chrysler, or BMW jumped to XM. I frankly expect the adoption rate to be higher with the BMW or Mercedes crowd. Mike
