XM shipments have resumed

[J. Fowler]

The latest Forbes article mentions:
====
"According to the analyst, the company has resumed shipments of its
RoadyXT, SKYFi2 and Sportscaster radios based on outside tests that
demonstrated the units were in line with FCC standards. Shipments of the
Xpress will also likely resume over the next few weeks."

"XM finally appears to be regaining its footing, while the expectations
for Sirius may be too high," he wrote in a research report Wednesday."

This bodes well -- XM's guidance reduction surely envisioned a worst-case
scenario, but it clearly wasn't so bad -- the 'fix' involved attaching a
couple of ferrite beads and they're rolling again. As far as can be seen,
there have been none of the product shortages predicted by Peck.

I find some reason for encouragement with XM -- they have begun making some
positive steps, however slight, in the marketing area. It won't take long
for them to get back on track, hopefully.

He?

Who is ''he''?

Are the additional FCC questions we sawabout earlier today in
response to the latest 3rd party statement of compliance or were they
very recently addressed? Still knee-deep in questions here...

"He" in the "idiot analyst" and infamous XM pumper Jonathan A. Jacoby
from Banc of America. The guy gets it wrong more than frontmed, but he
shamelessly keeps pumping and recommending XMSR stock, and the stock
consistently dives for new lows shortly after each of his
recommendations.

"Based on outside tests" that May Not Be Accepted by the FCC!

More problems for XM IF the FCC denies above mentioned test results.

So the enumerated list of concerns came after this Statement of
Compliance?

That is the question? Who really knows?
