"Stiletto 2 blows huge chunks of vomit"
Pros: lightweight
Cons: won't store individual songs from radio play
Summary: The Stiletto 2 has some improvements, but over all the Stiletto 100 was a better model. I recently got a Stiletto 2 from Best Buy because my Stiletto 100 stopped working. I had a warranty so it was a "pay the difference" replacement.
To my shock I could not instantly save my favorite songs to my library by clicking the "heart" button. Instead it saved them to a "wish list" which later you need to pay .99 to download the songs.
Also, the "radio replay" option now has a time limit on it. After a specific about of time has passed, your radio replay is deleted, whether you listen to it or not. The Stiletto 100 erased music only as needed.
The software included hasn't made any improvements. I like iTunes way better. You'd think that eventually they would improve it.
If you are thinking of purchasing this model, think about saving your money. The extra $140 for this model is definitely not worth the upgrade to me. If Sirius wants to stay in business they certainly aren't trying hard to do so. Maybe the increase in price of the Stiletto 2 is because they need to pay Howard those hundreds of millions of dollars.

I think you need to read your manual.... I have radio replays on mine that have been there for 3 years and never had to pay extra for any song.... I think it is a great product

PRESS THE LOVE BUTTON WHEN YOUR SONG IS PLAYING AND IT WILL BE STORED IN THE LIBRARY.
