Although the iPad mini and iPad 2 have near identical specs, the iPad 2 does not get Siri. It can't be because of hardware limitations.

See for yourself:

What do you think about that?

I think it's fair. Buy newer decides for newer features. Apple never said it was a hardware limitation

Siri on iPad isn't that useful anyway
 
So... buy the new iPAd... then.
You can sell iPAd 2 and get 300 dollars on ebay without too many difficulties.

You can replace it with iPAd mini...
