If I recall correctly, XM and Sirius cost about the same for monthly services, the xm I just signed up for is 12.95 per month with a slight price break for paying all twelve months up front. Sirius has the same type plans XM charged me a 9.95 to activate and I don't recall paying sirius an activation fee but that was two years ago.
Hardware costs to get started in the Indianapolis area run from "free" on up but most of the popular car sets are in the $75 - $100 range, simple installations can be done by most anyone, cleaner installations run $70 at the best buy near my residence. Most of them require you to buy a separate home it or they have come out with "portable" devices the past year or so.
Both XM and Sirius have come out with IPod like devices that are a little pricer but really feature packed.
