Hmmm
I do agree, i think if you have the iPhone 4 , this is quite a dull and unnecessary upgrade, i think if you managed to grab the siri app (why didn't anyone tell me of this before it became famous) before they pulled it, there is absolutely no point in upgrading. And even if you didn't, do you really need Siri?
I have had an iPhone since the beginning and this is the first time, I've never preordered. I feel quite sad but i think I'm going to go with Samsung Note or Nexus Prime, or perhaps a windows 7 phone. I don't mean to sounds selfish, as obviously very sad time for Apple with Steve Jobs passing on but you had 16 months to make a jaw dropping phone......which didn't happen.
I defo think apples IOS is more polished, and Siri is very impressive, but come on guys you are way behind the hardware market......
I think if Apple made it slightly bigger it would of sold twice as many......but sounds like they are already successful.

I want to see what Siri says if you ask it for the answer to life the universe and everything.

Siri sounds like computer voice in Star Trek Next Generation
Is it me or does the Siri voice sound identical to the computer voice in star trek next generation.
watch this clip to hear a bit of the computer voice to Data:

this guy wouldn't get a job even selling lint at an Apple store.
The majority of YouTube 'reviews' (of anything) are like watching paint dry and make products seem as appealing as catching a cold.

If he was Russian, would expect the characters set in Cyrillic. I think he was Polish.

User: Siri, what is Camelot?
Siri: It is a silly place.
I have the old Siri App. The existing one did not have any integration with Calendar, Reminders, Geofencing, taking dictation in email/text messages, no tie in with Wolfram Alpha, did not allow follow up questions, lost it's place if you opened a map and had to go back in etc. It basically allowed one question for the web and tried to rephrase to get you to agree to the question. This Siri Personal assistant is WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY better.
According to the loop, it can be enabled on Canadian iPhone 4S's.

While driving?
One thing I noticed, and someone correct me if it's actually a different model the British people were using.... but it appears that if you speak in a British English accent, it replies in a British English accent. Can anyone validate this? If so, that's pretty wicked.
No, they changed it in settings, to the british Siri, when the brits were trying it out.
If your hands are free. What the hell are you pressing the mic button with?
So having to press a button every time really makes it hands free doesn't it.
It's nothing more than a cheap gimmic to get people to buy a phone. Credit to Apple it's worked damn well.

Probably so since they were also showing temperature in celsius. You guys can now say call my mum...
These three things (or any one of these three things) would make me wait in line indefinitely for my upgrade...

It also supports raise to speak so that you can just pick up the phone and put it to your ear and start talking.
Something cool about Siri is it obviously has an online database for answers, which means it will improve all the time and you'll be able to ask it more and more crazy things
Can it be used offline? like for some simpler commands?

Bullocks! As stated a numerous times, pressing the microphone button is OPTIONAL!
