This is true, but the Si570 is better than the vast majority of canned oscillators, including many TCXOs.
While computer-grade canned oscillators do indeed have less than ideal phase noise characteristics, several easily available oscillator modules such as the Crystek CVHD-950 range beat the close-in and wideband phase noise of the Si57x devices by 10-20dB.
