Was looking for this as well.. I'm thinking its only available to US users.

Are you talking this page?

You can get the app on this link according to the page. I don't have an Android device so I can't tell, but it supplies this link that downloads a file I'm led to believe is an Android installer.

Thanks! that worked.. haha, I guess I really didn't look around too much when they had it right on their site. Weird thing is its not in the market, the link from the site is for the app itself.

I have a U.S. sub and can't see the app in the Android market.
The link from sirius.com doesn't work (error 404).
I can use the Canadian link and it works...for a Canadian sub.
Need a link/app for a U.S. sub in Canada.

SiriusXM app (US VERSION)

Rigis - I have been looking into this as well. All I can say is at this point I don't know what to do. I am lucky in that I have a BB Storm 2 from BELL and was able to download the siriusXM app directly from the US website. Don't know why it wasn't blocked - my guess is that support for my OS or phone is not enough for Bell to worry about.

I have found a .apk file that is supposed to be the Android app here: http://www.mediafire.com/?t8cj86kmh18m9gl

If you put this file on a micro SD card and then download an app loader from the marketplace it should work...I can't confirm because I don't have an Android phone, or know anyone who can test it for me.

I would love to upgrade my smartphone to an HTC Desire Z or the new BB Torch but I won't risk losing my access to SiriusXM over my current setup. It would be great if you could give this a try and post some feedback. Sadly it seems that neither RIM nor SiriusXM want to provide an app that works with BB OS6 so I may be SOL once this BB Storm 2 dies.

Works on phone, not on tablet

I thought I would bump this thread instead of starting another.
The Sirius Canada android app works perfectly over the wifi connection on my Samsung Gio.
However, I cannot get it to work on my Le Pan 970.
I installed the app directly from the Sirius Canada website, and get to the point of typing in my username and password, but then it forever hangs at the "checking for updates" screen.
I see in other threads on this site, and other sites, that people have experienced the same issue on their tablets.
Has anyone been successful in getting it operational?
