Very weird.. I came here looking to make a post asking about whether XM or Sirius was better, and such a post already was at the top of the forum.

Anyway, Sirius' deal with the NFL and the fact that they will cover all games is a big draw for me.

However, XM seems to offer the better selection in terms of Sports stations.

But I did have a hardware related question.

I know that there are car adapters, head units, and antennas available for cars, and even the home, but I was wondering if there is a small, handheld, Sirius radio that can be used like a walkman or discman?

Basically, I'd like to listen to Sirius when I go for a walk, a run, or when I chill at the library.. Does such a device exist, or can you only get the radio through the home or car adapters?

Just to be clear.. All I am looking for is a personal and small radio that gets the Sirius stations, and that I could plug some headphones into. Does such a device exist?

Sorry for the repetetion.. I just want to make sure it's clear what I'm asking for, because I would consider this for my car, but if I could get a personal radio that supported Sirius, that would be sweet, because my local radio carries about 2 stations well, and I'd like to have more.

Thanks!
