Several features in Siri don't work outside the US

[macingman]

Just a heads up for all the international iPhone users. Siri doesn't work with traffic, directions or finding places outside of the US at the moment (There may be a few more things that don't work that I haven't checked).

Also I find it recognizes my voice better and is quicker to use if I change the language from English (Australia) to English (United States).

If this has been already posted please wasteland my thread.

Today's launch was by far the easiest ever I walked into the apple store at 2PM and walked out 5 minutes later iPhone 4S in tow.

This is why i can't see all the fuss about pre ordering, or going to the shop at 3am to stand in the sue to get one!

My guess is they made too many iPhone 4's so have to get rid somehow

I was just about to post the same thing... a bit disappointing that some of the key Siri "tasks" are only available to the US.

That aside, I'm loving my new iPhone 4S... coming from a 3G it's freakin' sweet!
