Sirius Stiletto 2 experiences final curtain call

Posted on February 3, 2010 10:45 AM

The Sirius Stiletto 2 portable satellite radio seems to have reached the end of the road, and if you want one of these, it would be pretty hard to locate since only a few areas have them, and in dwindling stocks to boot. The discontinuation of the Sirius Stiletto 2 could be due to public sentiment moving away from dedicated hardware for portable satellite radio, alongside Sirius XM turning to the adaptation of current devices in order to provide portable audio capability, including its dedicated Internet radio app for iPhone and iPod touch owners and the XM SkyDock. In gaming parlance, GG Sirius Stiletto 2 and good night!

2012 might be the year ancient Mayans in a fictional world predicted that the earth as we know it, would end, but they were apparently miles off track as the only thing which would end would be the MSN Direct service. Yes, Microsoft will be pulling the plug onthe MSN Direct service on January 1st, 2012. At least there is more than enough time for subscribers to switch to other service providers, where the process is as painless as shutting down the service anytime before the ill fated date while reinvesting a refund of your unused service portion elsewhere.

Amazon cancels US-only Kindle

Barnes & Noble's Nook has certainly caused a reaction from one of their competitors, Amazon with the Kindle reader. After all, it looks as though Amazon will be canceling the US-only Kindle by consolidating their family of 6" Kindles, lowering the price to $259 from $279 previously. This would also mean that selected countries will enjoy an unlocked web surfing experience as well to take full advantage of the Kindle. Would this mean that previous US-only Kindles will go up in price in the second hand market?
