That's their partner. What's the fascination with WSI? Or is it something
you dislike about XM?


My fascination with WSI is tied to the fact that I am already a WSI
customer. My preference is to maximize the 5.0 AMU expenditure spent
purchasing and installing the WSI downlink weather receiver two years ago
(back when Garmin and WSI were partners of sorts, too).

Believe me, the thought has crossed my mind several times in ripping the
damn unit out and selling it on eBay, then purchasing the Garmin XM
receiver, but given that WSI is about to change to Sirius satellite
delivery, I am going to wait until the dust settles after the now free WSI
receiver swap later this year.

Well, can you use the L-3 iLink?
