Want to see more pictures of the all new Sirius Stiletto 2? Why wouldn't you. Follow the jump for some huge images to feast your eyes on.
Side note: I apparently ruffled some feathers by saying the Stiletto 2 looks to be better than the Pioneer Inno. Yes, I know the Inno is nearly two years old. But without any updates from XM to show otherwise, I'd have to give the Stiletto 2 the crown in terms of capabilities (MicroSD, WiFi and cached "virtual channels" are the winners in my book).
Then again, the proof is in the pudding.
And I'm headed over to Sirius' HQ right now to go check out the Stiletto 2 in person... stay tuned.
The Sirius Stiletto 2 flat on its back.
Stiletto 2 (not actual size).
I hope it loads channels and options faster than the orignal also. That always bugged me. Simply took to long to navigate through the thing.
Ryan,
No ruffled feathers here. I am quite happy you like the unit and you are enthusiastic about checking it out. I know you will post a detailed description of the unit.
Although I did get one fether twisted when you mentioned XM had not improved the INNO at all. I have to ask you... do you know what has not yet been released? Or on another note, If the retail market is dieing presumably cause there are more and more OEM installs out there, Then why come out with much of anything new. Here if the Stilletto 2 is not much better with the exception of packaging and SD slot, well then Kudo's to Sirius for not overspending on R&D to put out some really fancy thing thats not going to sell in sufficiant quantities.
Ryan, I apoligize. It may have come off like I had ruffeled feathers. thats not what I ment it to seem like,.
@jeff: You're right, I haven't seen what XM has coming down the pipe. So all I can do is compare what's currently on the market. If a new Inno comes out that blows me away, then I'll be sure to voice that as well.
Maybe there is no future in retail (though a slow release cycle will inevitably create a slowdown in retail sales... long live planned obsolence), but the geek in me likes to see new toys. Remember, Sirius didn't have much to show for CES while XM did. Now we see why.
