5 out of 5 stars Belkin F8E724 Review   December 20, 2008
Sorry to say, but this item is still in the box; but I had to have it!!!!! It goes with all of the other products I have that go with my Roady XT/XPRESS radio. But believe me, it WILL eventually be used.


4 out of 5 stars Good for what I needed for   July 21, 2008
I got mine last week. No signal in the gym that's no big deal. Once I charged it up and got it posistioned on my head over my ball cap I was on my way. I walk my dog daily, now I listen to my favorite music (the 60's) on 6. It cuts out a bit under heavy tree cover but again no big deal. It's a bit cumbersome to carry but I put the radio in my pocket and it workd out fine. All in all I like it will keep it and recomend it. Just don't expect too much. Out door people should love it for walking its great.


3 out of 5 stars Battery life too short   January 27, 2008
I brought this so I could take my xm radio with while I went to the store but the battery life is only 4 hours. The battery life is so short I can't go to the store and get back before the battery dies. So I don't use it as much as I thought I would. I wouldn't buy it again.


1 out of 5 stars Nice but poor volume level   September 24, 2007

Good reception but the volume level is very low. No way to increase it. I'm disappointed in its performance. Hopefully, the manufacturer can correct it.


1 out of 5 stars Gouge by XM....Shame, Shame!   September 9, 2007

XM has deliberately robbed the customer. The first thing that's terrible is that XM deliberately forces us to use a weirdo battery pack instead of our own batteries. Among other things, this means that you're not going to be able to listen for more than an hour.
Second, the design of the belt pack is terrible and destroys the unit, which means the abused customer must now buy more of these $100 units; the connector between the two components is stressed and wears out because the units flop around as the customer walks around.
Third, the earpieces themselves have a weirdo design that is very uncomfortable.
Fourth, the headphones have lousy sound quality.
Once again, the customer has NO CHOICE but to buy more and more of this cheap crap. XM made sure the unit was designed with a unique connector so we can't use other headphones which are not uncomfortable and don't have cheap sound quality like these do.
What a ripoff. Remember that you were treated like this when an alternative to XM and Sirius, which will soon merge with XM, comes along. Spend your money with the competition when it becomes available. Don't put up with this nasty treatment!
