woke this morning and all of my recordings are gone! All of them for no reason at all. Since they were downloads from live shows I can’t redownload them. I’m sad and disappointed.

I’ve had a Stiletto 2 for around a year now. When it is working, it is the greatest. The problem is that when i get into my vehicle, sometimes it detects an antenna, but most the time it does not. I’ve checked all my connections, and tried it in different vehicles with the same outcome… the home screen. When i choose a station it will just go back to the home screen. You can go to “turn antenna on” and press that button till the cows come home… I’m pretty confident that that button does nothing. The only thing i’ve found that sometimes works in completely shutting down the device and starting it back up (at least 3 times). I’ve also resorted to taking out the battery. Very disappointed with it when it acts like this, but extremely happy when it is working correctly. Its a love-hate relationship.

My s50 brokje so I ordered the stileto 10 but I could not record individual songs like they said I could and of course the wiring was just different that I had to pay for a new kit and instalation. So I eventually sent the stiletto 10 back and ordered the stiletto 2. Would the stiletto car kit which I just installed work for the stiletto 2? of course not, more money and time wasted. Does the stiletto 2 record automatically programs for me? So far it hasn’t and now this week, 5 weeks after I bought it, the radio is broke and they won’t send me a new one until I find a reciept. I just bought it from them and the customer servise rep, who has no idea of what “service” means, seemed to think I was lying. Sirius radio has a lot of work to do. Now I can understand why they are going broke.

My Stiletto 2 unit is great, except for the fact that I cant use the memory, and that the unit freezes up. Spend $300 and be told that you should only use 50% of the memory capacity. Internet seems to be full of reports about this but not one solid answer or resolution. Gues Sirius has my money now and doesnt care about fixing things.

Can anyone give me information on a possible Stiletto 3 that may be in the works? I’m looking for a portable as I already have it in my car but like something to listen to when I’m out of the car.

I’ve heard that Mel will be releasing information on the new plans and products around Oct 6 but would like to know if I should just go ahead with getting the Stiletto 2 or if it is worth waiting.

Thanks.

Hey Joe,

Stop knocking the device. People that buy a stiletto aren’t trying to replace their ipod you moron. You obviously don’t know anything about Sirius and what it’s designed to use. People like you should stick to your queer ipods and pre-recorded content that you spent months of your life collecting and syncing up with your pc. Customer service in this day and age is a useless concept. Buy quality products and learn how to use them for yourself. Stop blaming companies for the fact that you can’t figure out how to use 3-way calling on your cellphone.
