Siri ?

What the first thing come across in your mind when you heard or see a word SIRI? For me, the first time I heard it I asked myself was it an English word? I only know about 'drama berSIRI'or a word that got similar meaning with the word 'version'... hehe.

Even though I am yet to become one of the iphone users but I am admit that I follow the iphone progress and development very much. Why I don't use iphone if I am a big fan of iphone? The answer simply because I already got my Nokia 97 which running on Symbians OS (operating system) and bought before iphone was introduced. So unlucky, huh ! Actually, the most important reason I dont give up my N97 because it is my birthday gift !

Hey ! Why suddently I wrote about iphone while I just started this posting about SIRI? can u guess?

I am neither an IT expert nor so a software engineer but I can tell to people if they want to know about iphone and iOS. I believe most of us aware about the latest Apple's product i.e. iphone 4S. It is too bad for us in Malaysia because it is still not available. I am not going to elaborate details on the device itself because Apple does not pay me any money for that.... hahahaha... What I am interested to share here is one feature which is a kind of new breakthrough technology that iphone 4S can do and it is really works. Here, I will share in a brief how does Siri works and interact with us. Thus, I picked some good video that i found in Youtube showing about Siri... Enjoy it..

Firstly, let's watch the official video about Siri from apple  to get an idea of what I am trying to talk about the Siri. What do you think? Does it looks like a science fiction? Similar like the captain Picard of USS Enterprise give an order to his ship in the Star Trek movie. Initially, my thought about kind of technology is ridiculous and impossible. Does Siri really capture each words what u say? How they built a program that can translate a voice into scripts or command that Siri can understand and response on it? It's amazing !

Well, now let's watch the actual video from users who made review when they actually use the Siri. I purposely took Siri's review done by common people and not the IT expert. This is because the reviews expose us feedback and point of view from common people like us as users.

 Here another video...

Last but not the least...

So, what do you think? Like it or not? hhhmm... personally I cant wait iphone 4S to come to Malaysia... Prior to that, of course Apple need to further develop the Siri so that it can 'understand' other languages and can spell other words (instead of American English only)....hehehe.
