I think Siri is just a glorified side-tracker that Apple have used to fool their loyal customers. Now don't be quick to judge, I am not an apple hater. I was one of those people who were eagerly waiting for the Iphone5 (or what ever)which would have had a revolutionary design and iOS-5. But it wasn't to be. To make things worse Steve Jobs passed away. With such disappointment back-to-back, I bought a Samsung Galaxy S2. Just a toy but none the less, its my temporary anti-depressant. :)

Who cares about brand or anything as long as it works and it is good thats what should matter. Love all of this innovation, its good! :)
i have tried to use siri on 2 seperate iphone4s and both of them could not get a connection to the sir8i network....... lets see if this is resolved
I for one, am actually happy to live in such times of strong competition. Remember the days of Nokia vs SE? All there was to argue about was camera camera camera lol.
Very lucky now, multiple OSes iOS, Android, WP7, Bada, Meego, and even newer ones coming up on the horizon. Manufacturers also strong, each with their unique personality SE, Nokia, Apple, HTC, Motorola, Samsung.
So much choice, and yet still so much room for growth. Amazing.
guys we have to be happy instead of fighting with each others coz every company is claiming for crown so that they are making something really super we have to be happy that our world is updating... being a fanboy is bull**** don't be stupid coz you won't get anything from companies.

How much you explain they will come again with the same dum... moreNo worries, every stupid comment actually allows us to reply, with the video link, so others will be more educated about this. In a way, these fanboys are helping to spread knowledge about Siri ;)
Android already has voice actions integrated. atleast i see it in Froyo. But seems most commands work only when recognizer set to 'English (US)' Check out following youtube video posted more than a year ago.

How much you explain they will come again with the same dumb excuse saying voice apps have been there long ago... Tired telling them Siri is not just a voice app...
Anonymous, 12 Oct 2011Think you need to go back further, I used MS Voice Command on my XDA way before that!Dude you don't get it. I used voice control on my K800i dumbphone (loved it by the way, great camera).
Siri is not voice control, it is AI. You can chat with it, and it understands. Easiest example is Knight Rider, on your phone.
Military grade artificial intelligence is now on the iPhone. Welcome to the future:

And Siri isn't just a Voice Command app, it's roots can be traced to SRI and DARPA's project CALO, the largest AI project EVER launched.

Siri is a smartphone AI and not just a voice command app.

android fan , 12 Oct 2011samsung galaxy s2 has voice talk and other simular app to this which has been out longer so no... moreYes definitely. Voice control is very old technology, even when dumbphones were around. They work by direct commands.
Siri is not voice control software (only), it is Artificial Intelligence, possibly the first time AI has been integrated into a phone the way Apple has done it, and is quite groundbreaking. So, Siri can 'understand' your questions, even if indirect, like "Do I need a raincoat today?" which other voice apps cannot do.
This video shows how Siri can prepare a text, pause, check the calendar, then send out the text without direct commands:

Vlingo! Genius!
So which is it? LOL at Android fans stumbling all over themselves getting their panties all bunched up.
D79_, 12 Oct 2011"Google Search" as in google voice search, im talkin about search apps u plum, as u ... moreIn the very first paragraph they explain how it goes beyond normal voice recognition:
"The software itself goes BEYOND pre-designated voice commands and uses speech pattern recognition along with ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE applications to allow users to search the net, write messages, set alarms, check the weather and generally access the plethora of features available on their iPhone, all by voice."
every fin fandroids are more interested in apple threads than theirs...
Ps. Voice recognition will never take of, none work in loud environment and its not a private sourch. Voice recognition is just a gimmick and will always be a gimmick who ever makes it
