The SIRIUS/XM app for BlackBerry has been available in the US since early February, 2010. The app is an extension of the premium paid service, and gives you 120 channels, just like on the iPhone app. We’ve learned that the app is now available in Canada, so feel free to check it out and download for your device.

Head over to SIRIUS Canada for the download.

Update: This software can utilize both the BlackBerry Bluetooth Stereo Gateway and the BlackBerry Visor Mount. If you’ve already paired the device, it’ll work without the need for further configuration.

    Does anyone use this and have any clue what kind of data this required to listen to it a lot? we have 1 GB BES packages but I'm curious to know how much data it takes. As well does anyone know if this can stream VIA Bluetooth so I can listen to SIRUS using my car system?

    @Caspan I like where you're going with this. I'm going to test it with the BlackBerry Visor Mount Bluetooth Speakerphone, as well as the Bluetooth Stereo Gateway.

    Thanks Matt, why would I ever need a SIRUS ready stereo if I can just stream with Bluetooth?

    It works with both the Stereo Gateway and the Visor Mount. SIRIUS played through both with zero configuration.

    This is great news, You can get SIRIUS in your car using the mobile network instead of official SIRIUS hardware! Great job QuickPlay Media!

    Now if they would only syndicate my local Radio Station. I would love to have 102.1 Edge in digital. Why dont they give you 5 stations to chose from to add to your service. Right now digital radio sucks cause you have to pick from their list of stations. Give me your stations plus allow me local access or else I'm not paying!
