The headline of this Press Release is a bit misleading, Yes, it’s a free app but it’s coming to the DROID and Nexus One only in May… and well it’s free app yes, but you’ve got to subscribe for the premium content, but you’ll get a 7 day free trial…. The whole PR is rather confusing really, it starts off with saying that the app will be available for free in May for Android powered smart phones, but then finished the paragraph by saying it’s only for the DROID and Nexus one… I was getting excited as I’ve got the Moto Backflip Android phone, but I got excited for nothing as the PR was just misleading and yes the app is free, but the service isn’t?! (I seem to be repeating myself don’t I?)
…anyway read this thing and you tell me what you think when you first start to read it:
SIRIUS XM Radio today announced that a free application for Android-powered smartphones will be available in May, giving consumers access to over 120 channels of sports, talk, entertainment, news, comedy and commercial-free music on the DROID by Motorola and the Google Nexus One.
Maybe it’s me, maybe I’m just being overly sensitive here but why not for any other Android devices?
Oh well, read on for the full PR:
