Personal Technology Tips in Plain English
Listen to XM Satelite Radio on Your Blackjack
![]()
My Blackjack has 3G support, so it’s about time that I start figuring out how to make the most of it. Streaming media is one of them of course. The Blackjack comes with XM Radio Mobile preinstalled already. It gives you a free trial period, but after that you’re on your own. Cingular tries to sell you a $8.99/month subscription fee for the XM mobile radio service. However, you don’t get the dozens and dozens and dozens of channels on the native XM radio. You get a whopping 25 channels. While they are great to have with you wherever you go, if you already have an XM radio subscription, you’re already used to having tons more channels available and you’re already paying a subscription fee for it.
So what to do? There are 2 alternative ways to get XM Radio on your Samsung Blackjack without paying Cingular. Thank goodness you have web-access! 2 sites allow you to enter your XM radio subscriber email address and password and you’re in!
