What does the Sirius look like on the N-3 ? Does it have color graphics and a layout like xm? My buddie has a n-1 and sirius and it looks like S.

if you can post a pic with the screen on alt nation or something it would be great. THX

T&he Sirius interface on the N1 and N3 are the same. Pioneer has the agreement with XM. I believe DEI makes the IP Bus Sirius tuners for Pioneer compatibiliaty.

is there a way around it like you do with the update on the XM channels.

No, no update will fix it. It does look much better on the D3 and a couple more models coming out. Hopefully the merge goes through so I can get the better programming of Sirius with the neato display of XM
