Sirius info display on COMAND

I just got our new 2008 R350V4 and my wife and I are really disappointed with the display info for Sirius. It really is a pain to have to press the info button anytime you change the channel or after getting back into the car. Her old aftermarket unit had way more options and my 06 Jetta TDI has the info displayed all the time - why shouldnt the Benz unit do it? Is there anything that can be done to the COMAND unit to get it to leave the info on all the time? I ran a few searches on the forum here but could not find any info on this. Thanks, Lou

beater with a heater
the command screen is assuming you know what you selected for listening, it is like cable, 450 channels but you can really only watch one (PIP don't count)

but no clue to why it does it. if ya want just add an Alpine Vhub to it
