But with the infinite variation and possible combinations of the spoken English language, and people's accents, Siri already starts with two arms tied behind her back...

Then she should have been named "Kali", so that even with two arms tied she'd be wondrous.

You just need to edit and type it to sHow what you really said. Then she'll store it and next time you say it she'll either offer up what you said before or you'll need to edit again. Next time she should get it.
Yes at this point she needs some user input to train. I guess not many people (myself included) didn't see that what Siri returned could be edited. Once I did its been oh why didn't I realise before as the blue line is there under words. It's obvious really. Course sometimes it's not editable. Those times repeat what you said. Just takes a while to train.

I think the writer means "32, or 35%."
How many of those people said they use dictation? Like someone else said, that might be considered by some as using Siri. They may even count playing aroud with Siri.
Oh, and just because 33% of sampled users said they use Siri doesn't mean all iPhone 4S users in the population from which the sample is drawn use Siri. Sample statistics will almost always deviate from the population statistics by at least a small amount. What it really means is that, assuming the proportion is 33% and the sample size is 486, I can be about 95% confident that the true proportion lies somewhere between 28.82% and 37.18%.
