Mobility Today Video Review - Pioneer Inno @ Mobility Today

I just got an inno to replace my 2yr old Delphi xm2go. It seems nice so far, but I really liked the fm transmitter in my house with the delphi. I thought of just using a car kit inside, but it would be nice if Pioneer could provide a software fix. Why did they change this from early innos? The car antenna is smaller and doesn't fit the home cradle. Is the smaller car antenna as good as the larger home antenna if I do use the car kit in the house?
Also, my home cradle power supply is quite noisy. I'll take it in to Circuit City who will happily exchange it, but I hope they don't all emit a droning buzz. Has anyone else had a noisy transformer? Thanks

I bought one a couple days ago & returned it today for a full refund.
you have to shell out an additional 40-50 bucks, on top of what the unit already costs (300$),
to buy the headphones with the special antena in order for it to be portable.
Not sure why those headphones were not originally included but the unit will have horrible reception with out them.
I could only here every other verse of the song when I carried with me..this pissed me off.
I would not recommend this product unless you are willing to purchase the separt head phones.

Hi, Dave. I'm sure you saw Walt Mossberg's review where he ran into reception problems taking the Inno around DC. Can't tell from the review if you played with the unit outside of your car cradle, which I understand has an external antenna. I'd want to be able to clip the Inno to my belt and walk the dog without having the reception kick in and out. Do you have any insight?
