Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - * Exceeded my expectations! ...
Skimmed the previous reviews of the STILETTO; I can only conclude this was probably their 1st exposure to satellite radio because I enjoy this product immensely. I should say that I already owned a Sirius STRATUS, so I worked out my "signal connection" issues already through purchasing an FM Connect antennae (for the car) and a Sirius Radio Echo Wireless Signal Repeater (for the home). What surprised me was picking up a signal today from my car WITHOUT an antenna!

I purchased the STILETTO to listen to Sirius programming at work where a signal is not available. It DOES that. What I hadn't anticipated was the ease with which shows can be time shifted. Users are allowed the option of programming the Stiletto to alert users whenever a favorite artist, song or show is "currently playing". Simply click the select button and it's done. Want to record. With 2 clicks you're recording whatever's playing. There are other slick options that make the STILETTO fun to use.

The headset antenna works well, but it is a bit cumbersome. Fortunately, the STILETTO wasn't purchased with outdoor use in mind. I prefer to use it with my previously purchased boom box. The Stiletto also comes with 2 long lasting battery packs, an ac cord and a USB cable (w/software disc).

Purchase this product a week ago and haven't stopped using it yet. I highly recommend this product to anyone.


Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - Best model out there!
The reason the S10 was purchased was for it's recording option, and favorite artist option. IT does both WELL. Record your favorite shock jock in the morning and have his show ready to go when you get home. It skips thru commercials with a button push. Set it to keep only one show and it automatically erases the old one.

While browsing channels, click on add your favorite artists as you go. The favorite artist search works great when driving. Wait for the alert tone and hit the center wheel key and boom, you're listening to your favorite artist. After the song is done, usually the following song is just as good. So far after seventy favorite artists, it goes off every six or seven minutes, great if you want a good mix of tunes.

My location is under trees and found the external house antenna sold on amazon works great and most of the time gets full signal.

When the s10 is plugged into the home dock , it automatically charges the battery and comes with remote control. The dock is a must have.

About the only complaint, which isn't a big one is the memory storage of the unit. Ten hours is ok, forty would be great, but if favorite artist search is a MUST HAVE, then the S10 is the way to go.


Buyer's feedback: 2 out of 5 stars - * S10 does NOT!! play MP3s ...
As I pretty much agree with everything that has already been said - expect for the wacko that gave this 4 stars - I just wanted to add that the S10 does NOT play MP3s.

Now, I admittedly should have figured this out before I purchased the device but my research consisted of only reading these reviews. As my main reason for purchasing was a cross-country drive, I figured the headphones and non-automobile reception problems wouldn't be an issue for me and I would use the device as my MP3 player.

The S100 is $100 more expensive than the S10 - as an MP3 only player currently costs, what, like $20? - I assumed the price differential was tied to assorted other useless features as in the iPod line-up.


Buyer's feedback: 4 out of 5 stars - Best Radio on Radio
I've had Sirius in home and car for about two years, and I got this portable to make a contract job a little less boring. I've used both my Shure 3 and Sennheiser P100 headphones, and put the Sirius antenna headphones in a window. The signal has been superb, as has the sound quality. The hookups for the two headphones are different, so there's no problem there. It has been a wonderful investment.


Buyer's feedback: 1 out of 5 stars - * Stiletto buyers- please READ THIS ...
Read all the reviews here before you buy a Stiletto because there is a 100% chance that; A.)The supplied antenae headphones cannot be worn for more than a few minutes without your ears beginning to blead.
B.)You cannot move while wearing said earphones or they flip down and off your head due to their top heavy design (the antenae on the top).
C.)Receiving a signal in any other location other than a wide open treeless prairie...while standing exactly still will be a rare occurance. If you do get a signal it will dissappear in a few seconds. Even glass is enough of a barrier to impede the signal.
O T H E R W I S E
It works great in your car w/car kit or at home with your home kit and of course you can record Sirius programing which is nice but I really wanted the portability and this just doesnt do it. You certainly cant jog with the headphones on and you cant ski either because no signal can get through a hat or helmet!

Pirates of the Caribbean - At World's End (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)
$22.99



Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End is a rollicking voyage in the same spirit of the two earlier Pirates films, yet far darker in spots (and nearly three hours to boot). The action, largely revolving around a pirate alliance against the ruthless East India Trading Company, doesn't disappoint, though the violence is probably too harsh for young children. Through it all, the plucky cast (Keira Knightley, Orlando Bloom, Geoffrey Rush) are buffeted by battle, maelstroms, betrayal, treachery, a ferocious Caribbean weather goddess, and that gnarly voyage back from the world's end--but with their wit intact. As always, Johnny Depp's Jack Sparrow tosses off great lines ; he chastises "a woman scorned, like which hell hath no fury than!" He insults an opponent with a string of epithets, ending in "yeasty codpiece."!

In the previous The Curse of the Black Pearl, Sparrow was killed--sent to Davy Jones' Locker. In the opening scenes, the viewer sees that death has not been kind to Sparrow--but that's not to say he hasn't found endless ways to amuse himself, cavorting with dozens of hallucinated versions of himself on the deck of the Black Pearl. But Sparrow is needed in this world, so a daring rescue brings him back. Keith Richards' much ballyhooed appearance as Jack's dad is little more than a cameo, though he does play a wistful guitar. But the action, as always, is more than satisfying, held together by Depp, who, outsmarting the far-better-armed British yet again, causes a bewigged commander to muse: "Do you think he plans it all out, or just makes it up as he goes along?" As far as fans are concerned, it matters not. --A.T. Hurley

On the DVD
Here's something you can't say about just any DVD extras: There appears to be more of Keith Richards in the outtakes, interviews, and other special features on the At World's End disc than in the actual film. For those scenes alone, this special edition is well worth the price. Richards looks as woozy and gamey as all the rumors suggested, and answers questions he's not asked, with Johnny Depp sitting next to him, almost acting as a translator. Richards offers pithy comments like, "Everything I do is original, you better believe," and smiles when other cast members call him "Two-Take Richards" for supposedly nailing his scenes.

The packed second disc also includes a terrific mini-doc on how the filmmakers created the famous maelstrom, in an enormous hanger in Palmdale, California, with the ships floating 30 feet off the ground. "Just moving the Black Pearl was an enormous undertaking," says producer Jerry Bruckheimer with serious understatement. Other cool extras include "Tale of the Many Jacks," deleted scenes with great commentary, "The World of Chow Yun-Fat," a bio of composer Hans Zimmer, features on the set designers, a look at the impressive Brethren Court, and some hilarious bloopers. "You can't curse in a Disney film," deadpans Depp when a costar blurts out something blue. "See? I told him." The extras are truly as much of a rollicking adventure as the film. --A.T. Hurley

Thanks to a fortuitous intersection of talent and fate, 22-year-old Josh Groban hasn't finished his senior year in performing arts school but has already released his sophomore effort on a major major label. Fans of the young vocal phenom's debut will find much to enthrall them here, even if it nudges the singer closer to the center of producer/mentor David Foster's MOR pop sensibilities. Eschewing much of its predecessor's more overt classic-lite pretensions and pop-rock covers for a slate of dramatic, Eurocentric ballads that serve as a showcase for the singer's inviting baritone, Groban shrewdly positions himself as the American alternative to the Bocelli-Watson crossover axis. "Caruso" may find the singer falling short of its operatic inspiration, but "Oceano" and "My Confession" quickly showcase his true dramatic range (which seems to all but yearn for a bona fide Broadway musical challenge), while a vocal take of Bacalov's graceful "Il Postino" theme uses classical virtuoso Joshua Bell's violin flourishes to good effect. To his credit, Groban displays some promising efforts at songwriting collaboration on the bittersweet "Per Te" and "Remember When It Rains," while the ambient/ethnic soundscape of Deep Forest's "Never Let Go" offers a teasing alternative to the record's otherwise melodramatic production formula. Groban has found commercial triumph via Foster's mentoring, but there remains a nagging sense here that he hasn't truly pushed himself as an artist--yet. --Jerry McCulley
The Confessions Tour - Live from London (CD+DVD)
$23.99



The world can't get enough of Madonna, and with CD/DVD sets like The Confessions Tour dropping regularly, it's little wonder why. As a thrower of fantasy dance parties, she is peerless. As a physical role model for the 40-ish women who grew up on her music, she rules. And as an arbiter of what's going to sound shockingly original in any given decade--well, duh. The Confessions Tour rounds up songs from way back--"Ray of Light" and "La Isla Bonita" make the DVD, and "Lucky Star" and "Like a Virgin" are on the CD as well as the DVD--but this concert, filmed in 2006 at London's Wembley Arena, aims its sturdiest spotlight on Confessions on a Dance Floor, Madge's 2005 disco disc. You could argue, then, that unless you're in it for the sheer DVD spectacle (and what a spectacle it is), there's no sense in owning this package. Only you wouldn't be right. Because as any on-the-ball Madonna fan knows, what she's doing musically is telling a story--you may already know the characters, but that doesn't mean she hasn't completely reworked the plot. To that end, "I Love New York" gets its rock on, "Let It Will Be" has a musical temper tantrum, and "Hung Up" goes for the drama queen award. You've heard these songs before, but you've never heard them quite like this, to borrow a bad informercial phrase. As twisted and hopped-up as they've become, they're all worth getting to know again. --Tammy La Gorce
Confessions on a Dance Floor
$10.97



Apparently there's nothing in Kabbalah that disallows sweaty, head-spinningly good dance music, because here comes a flame-haired Madonna hawking a dozen songs' worth: Confessions on a Dance Floor darts seamlessly from Madge's early days, when she emerged as the genre's enduring darling, through the political, kiddie, and acoustic pap that drove a wedge between her and early adopters of the fingerless glove look. Songs like the pop-leaning "Jump" and first single "Hung Up"--an adrenaline drip on high that, like many of these tracks, will inspire mild shame among those who've thrilled to the much thinner disco-dusted outpourings of younger divas recently--represent both a return to form and an unmistakable march into the future. "Get Together" is a sonic freak-out in the best sense; "Push" traffics in gut-level futuristic trance; and "Forbidden Love" loops in '80s blips and bleeps for a follow-me-into-the-past effect that's both neo and retro. For all the image-affirming innovations here, though, these confessions find Madonna framed in her share of reflective moments too. "Was it all worth it/How did I earn it?" she asks on "How High," a song featuring vocoder. "Nobody's perfect/I guess I deserve it," comes the answer. A later lyrical inquiry is left for the listener to judge: "Does this get any better?" Madonna wants to know. But that opens the door to a dizzying proposition. Few of us would have guessed, after all, that it got this good. --Tammy La Gorce
