NEW thread checked the others and they are pre iphone 4S . what can i say it replaced the 3gs for me . the 4s is advancement again . this SIRI thing is great , very easy to use , has easy software which enables you to ask SIRI how to use it . example i held down the button and said " whats the population of china ?" the iphone voice repeats the question , than googles it and within 2 seconds has it on the screen .
i can just say ring home . and it will . i can say message dad , tell him he is rude . and i think it will . i said tell me a joke , the reply was 2 iphones walked into a bar , and i forgot the rest . yesterday siri replied to the same question , i dont know any good jokes ,infact none. yesterday when asked where do you live SIRI replied " wherever you are " today when asked the same question siri replied " i'm not allowed to tell you" this is just through experimentation . i havent read the catalogue yet . but i asked siri what is icloud and it played a video from the apple site explaining what icloud is . miles and miles ahead of the iphone 3GS . could be seen as funny or even a little scary , whats the next 2 years going to bring with phone technology ? it's evolving extremely fast . yesterday i asked siri . WHO AM I ? siri replied " i do not know who you are but if you identify yourself in contacts i will memorise your voice and know who you are " WTF. |

This tech has been around for a while. All apple do is steal other peoples ideas and take it to the masses, taking all the credit for themselves. They aren't the pioneers everyone seems to think they are.

I think we need something in the site's T&C regarding no iphone or Android threads. They always go south in record time.

They may take other peoples ideas. But they do them better. And make them easier. That's the kicker.

Not what you do but how you do it.. And Apple just seem to do it well.
I have used the talk on a Galaxy S2 and the Siri on Iphone 4S. Siri is way better. |

I've stayed away from Apple for so long, even though the Chuck Yeager Combat Flight Sim was great on the Macs years ago at work.
After years of Nokia/Motorola/NEC, I now have an Iphone 4S. I have no regrets. Works well, the reminders are great - "remind me to get Adam's laptop when I get home". "Remind me to put in my overtime claim when I get to work" The phone makes a noise, and displays what I have to do. GPS works quick, too. I got tired of trying out Iphone killer phones, and getting disappointed.

FYI, everything you say to SIRI gets sent to Apple.
