 Extremely disappointed. martie 9, 2010
J. Sinclair
I decided to buy this after Christmas, and using Christmas money I read reviews and considered it. I heard that the reception wasn't good indoors, but I decided to buy it anyways because of the color display even if I could only use it in my car. Well, let me tell you, worst money I ever spent. I bought it from Best Buy (hint to those who are purchasing from there, have them price check) but unfortunately I could not buy a car kit until I finally found one on the internet because Sirius must have stopped making them. Then, I could not activate it because it wouldn't take a check card on Sirius's site and you need service to activate it.. Oh yeah, the "poor service" indoors is actually no service at all. Let me tell you, standing outside in a blizzard waiting 20 minutes for the Sirius rep to activate it was loads of fun. Finally, all my troubles with Sirius were subsiding and I was able to use my radio for oh.. about three weeks. Now, my radio won't pick up any signal at all. Lucky for me, this happened just past the 30 day return limit. Its just me though, everyone else has signal with their non stiletto 2 radios. I am going to TRY to return this to Best Buy in exchange for a Sportster 5. If that works, try to convince Sirius to not charge me the switching radio fee. I don't have much faith though, I have had not one good experience with Sirius thus far.
 Great purchase..just be forewarned martie 7, 2010

To start, this player/receiver is awesome! You just need to know what you need and to fully understand the capabilities of the service provided by the Stiletto. You most definitely will have to have at least a home kit and also a car kit to be able to use it at all. Also the best way to use the Stiletto is to record as much as you can at night and then you can pretty much use it the whole day without using up the very capable battery. The antenna headphones aren't as bad as some have said in earlier reviews, but they look like they were made in 1985 although they sound great. Personally if you know that you WILL have to pony up about 50-75 more dollars for everything you need to listen to in properly(car kit: 30$,home kit$30 and a memory card for mp3's:depends on size) you will have a great sounding mp3 player with the added bonus of satellite radio

Reception is ok with the headphones that have the antenna built in. Without the special headphones reception goes in and out quite often especially indoors. The wi-fi feature is beautiful. Works wonderful in wi-fi mode. Only drawback is that you cant rewind, everthing is buffered. It is worth the money if you love satellite radio like I do.

I have been a sirius user since 2003 and have had many different combinations of radio's and boombox's or kits,really was looking forward to using this as a portable player since my work does not involve being near a power source.First problem,the battery life is 4 hours and 4 hours is what you get,can't even listen to a full Howard Stern show,extra battery you say?not supposed to take it out,plus even if you wanted to risk it its an extra 50 dollars.ok so I figure I can record the show and get more playback time that way since that claims to give you 10 hours,well wrong again because the system goes to sleep mode after 5 minutes even if its recording and not plugged in,portability is great if you only want to listen to 4 hours of radio a day,I need 8-10,even if a boombox was able to be found(go ahead and try they are all listed as discontinued or not available anywhere)the stiletto itself will die in 4 hours in the boombox even if that has a 9 hour life, if you are running it off batteries and not an ac cord(again this is portable???)satellite had its hayday but they lost it with horrible research and development and now you cant even find a way to listen to it,my only option is to sell this on ebay and get a nice shortwave radio since this company does not have much life left in it,or any customer service,Howard gone in a year anyway so addios.....
