It is, but that's actually how we use Siri in my family. Show us this, show us that, do a math problem for me, how old is so-and-so, etc. I'm finding she can answer a lot of questions when we are in the middle of a conversation and one of us is struggling to recollect a fact or need to do some quick calculating. But a lot of time we just ask for pictures of ridiculous things. Like chickens wearing sweaters.
Got a tip for us?

He's three months younger than me. Same thing happened to me. Just a couple of years ago I had a figure I could put in a bikini.
Good lord, what happened! Next thing you know my butt is up two pants sizes and I'm eating the same as I always did. Thanks Menopause. Jony Ive and my husband put on a few pounds, too, in the past year or two. Manopause. Age happens. We'd better get our Apple Watches on and fill those exercise rings!
Apple will not be on top forever. I think it's ignorant to think otherwise. Nothing like that lasts forever. And so many people are so aggravated with Apple. I think that's why so many people think it will soon. Plus Steve is gone. I know he's been gone a while, but still…he's gone.
Admit it. It's super fanboy to say "and here come the Apple-is-doomed comments." It may actually happen sooner or later.
Proceed with bashing me for speaking.

People have been saying that for 15 years. It may happen, but that doesn't mean it will anytime soon. Why do people get such a rise out of predicting doomsday for Apple?
This perfectly describes how I feel about some of the people in the MacRumors forums...lolW T F?
the bacground song for the iPhone 6 + ads is becoming annoying in my opinion. If every ad did not have the same jingle that everything has changed it would work better.
interesting how apple is really pushing hard with the celebrities these days. Wonder if that is the Beats influence .

Ask Sony how that worked out
excellent case study. Don't be fooled, people will only keep buying while you innovate and are the coolest product every two years.
All companies go these through cycles, it's a question of when and not if. Enjoying owning the coolest phone on the market, it takes one innovative product from the competition though to steal the thunder....
It will eventually happen. But I think it's waaaaay too early to argue about this. Considering how many times people have said that Apple is doomed, they've done pretty well. And you know what, it's not about record-breaking sales. It's about giving people a great experience with Apple products. At the end they still want to sell a darn bunch of those iPhones, and they will. They definitely will. But apart from that the main point is that a great experience ensures great sales.
Their customer base is huge, and the number of (potential) new buyers has increased a lot over the past year. Tim Cook said it himself during a few conference calls. I think the iPhone 6s will be Apple's last record-breaking phone for the next few years, but that's all fine. As long as they keep continuing innovating in technology like they do now. I don't want them to become Samsung.
Have you ever seen those soap powder ads where they talk about a special formulation which traps grease and dirt and lifts it away from the surface? Thats exactly what all soaps have been doing for five thousand years. Doesn't mean they're not allowed to say it, and doesn't stop the ad working as intended in the minds of consumers.
Excuse me for distracting from the overweight director-topic or Apple's doomed existence, but what kind of iphone is in the ad? it's black front and silver bezel??!

Yes, but damn did he got all that weight back after loosing it for the Ironman movies. With a build like that, I don't see Happy Hogan hooking up with Pepper Potts in any future MCU movie.
Put your money where you mouth is by doing this.
* Open an on-line brokerage account, fill it up with cash and expose your portfolio publicly.
* Short Apple stock for the next 12 months.
* Live with your predictions.

Comparisons to Android and the tired old, "Well Android had this feature X amount of years ago..." keeps popping up. Yeah Android had this feature a year or two ago already, but this is for iPHONE and maybe it's just informing iPhone users and possibly potential iPhone users about that ability without having to be plugged in. Maybe those potential iPhone users are current Android users and the ad is showing them that iPhone also has this feature. Big whup that Android had that feature before iPhone, the ad isn't saying that Apple created it nor is it saying they are the only ones with this feature. It's an ad like any other company would make to tout what it's product can do i.e. car companies showing off features of their cars.
You know that feeling you are feeling now? "Big deal if you had this first"
Thats how many people felt like when Apple sued Samsung for rounded corners and bounce back scrolling. Maybe thats why people keep bring up "Android had it first". This is what happens when you go thermonuclear.
Space grey is actually quite a light grey. I hate the contrast and wish it was much darker.Excuse me for distracting from the overweight director-topic or Apple's doomed existence, but what kind of iphone is in the ad? it's black front and silver bezel??!
Apple's new in house advertising with projected near 1000 employees pale in comparison to the advertising campaigns by TBWA/Chiat/Day - where the style, vision, and personality of the commercials were incredibly iconic.
The recent commercials by Apple seem devoid of personality vision or style wise, I guess one of the pitfalls of in house advertising.
