xPods? Satellites?

Dave Winer notes an interesting rumor during a visit to San Francisco:

I've only been in SF for a few hours and I already have an interesting rumor to spread. It turns out the nextgen iPod will hook up to satellite radio, for podcasting-like features, out of the box, from Apple. The rumor has it that this pod will be announced at MacWorld Expo, next month. Maybe it'll be called the xPod?

The big question would be whether stuff that comes in over the satellite
will be legal to record on the unit's hard disk to play when you want .
