For those who actually care, Android has had great "Siri"-like apps outside of the built-in voice system for a while now, with Vlingo [1] leading the pack. Asking pretty much any respected Android mailing list / channel / forum will give you Vlingo as the de-facto Siri for Android that we and iOS users have had before Siri even existed. With one exception: the two-way conversation that Siri has right now. That's the nice feature that I hadn't seen before the Siri-buzzword-madness started.
