I think as long as you get a 4400 or a 4080 you will be good. if you get something else who knows?

i just ordered a MyGIG off ebay, and have the 1Disk HU now with Siruis, do all I need to do is plug in the Sat Radio Ant cable into the back of the MyGIG, and then call Sirius and give them my new radio ID?

That's where I've been trepiditious. I haven't wanted to drop that much coin on something that wasn't going to work. I do now know how much the revisions play into it. All I know for sure is that you need the high speed bus.

Im surprised no one has mentioned that one of the best things a MyGig has over the portable GPS systems is the bread crumb feature. I dont think the handhelds offer this, and it is very helpful when exploring in the middle of nowhere.

If your handheld GPS unit doesn't breadcrumb, you've purched a very piss poor handheld GPS unit. Both the oldest and cheapest unit's i've owned do this.

If you're buying on ebay, be sure and use the live.com paypal discount trick. It was 25% cash back yesterday, haven't looked today. Best so far is 30% cashback.

Microsoft's Google competitor. They've been running a promotion to get people to use their search engine. Most people use it simply because they can get stuff cheaper through it (for now). You would have to search (fatwallet.com, mycoupons.com) to see what I mean. Works great, even for Jeep Parts.

What exactly is the trick? I looked for ebay and paypal on the site, but didn't see them listed... I'm obviously not getting how to use it for stuff off ebay.

You're help is appreciated!
