SIRIUS S50 Satellite Radio With MP3
SIRIUS Satellite Radio today announced the debut of its first wearable satellite radio, the SIRIUS S50 radio allows users to capture and store up to 50 hours of SIRIUS programming and MP3/WMA files.
When attached to a home dock, car dock or executive docking station, the SIRIUS S50 provides easy access to live content, and captures and stores both scheduled and unscheduled SIRIUS programming. This feature allows users to listen to SIRIUS’ unique programming anywhere.
The SIRIUS S50 cost $359.99.
The SIRIUS S50 stores content in a variety of formats for listening on the go, including “My SIRIUS Channels,” “My SIRIUS Songs,” “Scheduled Record,” and “My Playlists.”
The “My SIRIUS Channels” feature automatically gathers and refreshes sets of programming from the user’s three most-listened-to channels. The “My SIRIUS Songs” feature allows the user to save favorite songs or talk shows with the press of a button. The “Scheduled Record” feature allows the user to set the radio to capture favorite shows on a one time or recurring basis. The “My Playlists” feature allows users to supplement SIRIUS content with their own MP3/WMA library when attached through the home dock to a PC. The PC application also allows users to synch channel and image updates automatically through SIRIUS’ website.
The car and home kits utilize a rotary “SIRIUS Media Dial,” which provides quick and easy access to content. Listeners can turn the knob to find their favorite SIRIUS channel, tilt to pause, rewind, fast-forward or save a favorite song or show. In addition, voice-assisted navigation tells the user what channel they’ve selected, eliminating the need for the user to take their eyes off the road while driving. The radio also includes 30 channel presets; a jump button for one-touch tuning to traffic and weather reports or to a favorite SIRIUS channel; a sports ticker that flashes personalized sports scores; and a “Game Alert” feature which prompts when the user’s favorite NFL, NHL, NBA, or other sports teams are playing on SIRIUS.
“The wearable SIRIUS S50 provides subscribers with extensive versatility when it comes to when, where and how they receive their favorite SIRIUS programming. This small satellite radio is full of exciting, easy to navigate features for everyone from the least to the most tech savvy consumer.”
