Yesterday three of my coworkers purchased iPhone 4S's: two black 16GB and one white 32GB.

The two black phones worked all day. The white one never worked. Perhaps phones are assigned to Siri servers based on serial number, which would be affected by color and capacity?

That doesn't make much sense, but I can't figure out why of three phones in the same room, two would work perfectly and one not at all.
 
Mine just spins around the Siri mic for about 30 seconds then Siri comes on and says "Sorry I am Having Trouble Trying To connect To The Network".

Looks like something on the AT&T / Apple side of the Siri software.

Don't think it has anything to do with our phones its just the system on there end is hit and miss right now for a lot of people I guess.

Sure hope this gets worked out soon.... 24 hours later and already Siri is not working...... not a great selling point at this point.

She says "I'm sorry, I'm having issues connecting to the network"

Yep same here..... It's just an small nothing that I'm sure will get worked out soon..... people are probably pounding the hell out of the Siri end of the servers today more than likely.
 
Siri wasn't working for me all morning and afternoon. Just started working again now all buy itself.

Note: I did try turning Siri off/on, resetting network settings, rebooting phone. I tried turning Siri off/on one more time and it finally worked

Siri has not been working for me all day here in Michigan on Sprint. My phone is on wifi and when I use siri it just says I am having problems connecting to the network. I have a feeling Sprints network is getting raped.
 
Try this

I had the same issue with my iPhone 4S, AT&T, Black 32GB (I don't think color of the phone has much to do with this). My friend who bought the White 16GB's Siri has never stopped working but mine does every once in a while...

Here's what I did. I have gone to the Settings and change the language of Siri to UK English and ask several questions, then it works (except for searching businesses in US). Then turn it back to US English...

For some reasons, most of the times, this works and Siri starts to be zippy and happy...
 
Mhmmm. Seems quite sporadic. I went to an Apple store today and the ones I tried worked. Obviously didn't try all of them though. The stupid "Geniuses" didn't help me since it was with an iPhone 4S and I had to make an appointment. Obviously they were all full for a while. Seems location isn't a factor in it though. Com'on Apple. get your @&@! together. I'm on AT&T. What about other people?
