Similarly, on Directed Electronics' website the Sirius Starmate Replay, along with the Sirius One, are no longer available.
Combined with Audiovox removing both XM and Sirius radios from their website, and it definitely smells like something's up.

I read somewhere that the FCC was revoking the certification of a number of radios because their FM modulators were putting out too much power. I would bet that this is what is happening.

The radios listed are all now out of production as new units are already in production. That is why these units are still in stock at retail. You will see the new units on store shelves soon.
