Tao TXM1020 XM2Go Review at CNET
CNET has this review of the Tao TXM1020 XM2go. The reviewer gives it an 8.4 out of 10 rating which equates to an excellent rating. Ten users rated it an average of 7.0 out of 10, or very good.
The Tao XM2Go is a portable listening device for XM satellite radio. It is quite similar to the Delphi MyFi. The Tao XM2Go’s controls are pretty easy to navigate by feel and the mute button was moved to the center of the thumbpad for quick muting.
The Tao XM2Go has the ability to prerecord content - up to 5 hours worth. The batteries also last about 5 hours in portable mode.
Reception was kind of shaky for the reviewer at times and noted that the XM2Go didn’t come with a “personal antenna” like the MyFi. However, the XM2Go does come with a car kit, home kit and other portable accessories such as earbuds that have an in-line volume control.
Minor inconveniences: you have to turn off the XM2Go to get it to record any programs that you pre-scheduled to record. Sound quality is not as good as say the Delphi SkyFi receiver.
For around $100, the Tao TXM1020 XM2Go a pretty good portable XM radio.
