I called sales and the guy told me it will ship with the phone. I am very surprised and still a bit skeptical. They have been known to be wrong in the past. But as of now looks like we will get it when the phone is released .

Cool, thanks for going straight to the source... [/QUOTE]

Yeah but I'm still really skeptical. I watched the keynote again and at around the 72 minute mark is where he starts to introduce the demo. Take a look for yourself and see what you make of it. With what he said and the way he said it...I don't know. It seems like it's still BETA.

Have you ever in the entire history of Apple see them release anything that is still in BETA?

FaceTime was released in beta on the Mac.

Not saying you're wrong, i just don't remember it as BETA.

Apple also released iTunes 10.3 with iCloud in BETA earlier this year. In case you don't remember, here's a link:

Looks like there's a PR page that discusses Siri's inclusion on the 4S as beta as well.

"Siri will be available in beta on iPhone 4S in English (localized for US, UK and Australia), French and German."
