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! Permalink: Sirius Stiletto 2 experiences final curtain call from Ubergizmo | Hot

According to the latest figures from DisplaySearch, netbook revenue is poised to rise 72 percent year-over-year to $11.4 billion in 2009, even as sales of portable PCs overall decline 12 percent to $109.4 billion. With the economy now on the mend, however, netbook sales are expected to be challenged next year because of continuing declines in the average selling price (ASP) of standard notebooks, which offer significant performance advantages.
