The first year of full SXC operations has resulted in the detection of over a dozen GRBs and XRFs, and the SXC GRB catalog continues to grow at a rate of approximately 1/month. The small error circles, rapid position dissemination, and most importantly, aggressive follow up observations have led to a remarkable trend: nearly all SXC detections have an associated optical/IR/radio/X-ray counterpart. The systematic errors dominating the SXC astrometry are being reduced, and recent recalibration efforts will result in smaller error radii sent out to the GCN. Flight localizations calculated tens of seconds after the burst onset will also enable large telescopes with small fields of view to engage in rapid, deep searches. These two factors will aid in building a unique database of GRBs with associated transients.
