Ouch, I didn't realize they were requireing the change now.

Yep, required because the legacy system will be deactivated sometime early
2008. All customers must be over to the new receiver by that time.

That would
make me nervous as hell. What is WSI saying about ther XM/Sirius merger?

There are a few things about WSI InFlight that have incited my ire since I
have been a customer. Reverse engineering weather on the Garmin GNS430/530
that then resulted in Garmin abandoning WSI and leaving those of us with MX20
moving maps no longer supported starts the list. Frequent service outages and
this mandated upgrade round it out. When the service works it is excellent,
however.

Since XM and Sirius haven't officially merged yet (I think they are being
slowed/stopped by the US gov't, no?) I am confident that WSI will not muddy
the waters by mentioning any more constraints to their customers.
