I flew last week and had new episodes to listen to for the whole flight. A great MP3 player as well. The love button instantly stores any song or show on Sirius for listening again and again. always have new Stern to listen to even when he is on vacation. I listen to Howard Stern and cannot always listen to the whole show. The Sirius Stiletto is an amazing product. I am able to record it when I wake up, listen on my way to work and record the rest of the program when I arrive to work. Can listen anywhere either live or from recordings.
Picked up an aftermarket set that make them sound like they're from the '80s.-antenna headphones are the only way to pick up signal but DIG into ones ears and sound just as bad as the buds.MP3 player-CANNOT CREATE PLAYLISTS.need I say more.Internet radio-works okay-has trouble maintaining signal unless you're RIGHT next to a router.-limited number of stations-no recordingSatellite radio-HAVE TO HAVE AN ANTENNA CONNECTED. I can only use it in my car and as such, it would have been cheaper to buy a regular Sirius radio.I thought this was the solution to my Sat/MP3 desire but I will still have to buy an MP3 player. What a disappointment to say the least.Headphones-ear buds are garbage. You will look like a moron holding the radio to the sky all day, without one.-"Radio Replays" is a nice feature but nearly impossible to dig through (have to skip one song or "commercial free" commercial at a time).Batteries-It's nice they give ya two.-Neither work well for Sat mode (don't last long) but it's impossible to use the little one.-Both last long when just listening to MP3s or radio replays.OVERALL, not worth it.
The end result will likely be a higher rating; however, right now it has been returned to Silatto because it wouldn't power up. I am still waiting after a week and a half for them to either return it or send me a new one.
It also skips a head in 15 minutes blocks during the show (very handy when he has another stripper on). Love it. However, when I first got it, it would jump around when playing back a recording. I live on the west coast and I have the Stilletto set to record the east coast feed overnight. I also don't use this device for portable live broadcasting.
I'm a huge Howard fan and being able to record his show is something I've always wanted. I work from home so its nice to have on in the background, plus it skips past commercials in 30 second blocks with one push of a button. This radio has worked great for me. Those headphone antennas do not look comfortable. I love this device.
By 9 am pacific the broadcast (including the wrap show) is finished recording and waiting for me. All I had to do was upgrade the firmware and I haven't had that problem since.
The Sirius Stilleto works as Live Radio or as an MP3 player that records songs for FREE off the radio- it is versitile and easy to use. Great product.
