the apple store has to close its curtains for inventory updates (wtf? It's 2011, Apple) Marketing. Have you heard of it?

I don’t quite understand what your issue is. The language in the video doesn’t seem at odd with your statements.

He could have pre-ordered. He obviously does it because he likes to do it – nothing wrong with that.

You can get a different browser and change your search engine. It’s no problem.

Uhm? I’m confused now. You seem to be reading way too much into that article.

The author mentions a specific problem. We don’t know whether Apple considered that problem but it’s a problem nonetheless.

Did the original Siri also do stuff like this? I think it’s a great move on the creators’ part. Building silly stuff like that into Siri creates massive amounts of goodwill. That will make it much harder to really hate Siri when it – inevit

The US is not the World. Also: I don’t think an iMessage is 1MB.

Sigh. If you like you can obviously deactivate iMessage. It’s not a problem.

You don’t “use” iMessage and you don’t have to keep “track of” anything. If for friend has an iPhone you will automatically send her an iMessage, if not you send a text. You won’t even notice. (The “Send” button changes color. That’s all.)

Waffle? Apple never waffles. Apple just says nothing at all. I have no problem with Apple purposefully limiting Siri to the new iPhone and I don't really understand people who think that because the hardware supports it they should get it.

Which features would an iPhone 5 have? What would make it distinct from the iPhone 4S?
643.
by ugh 15y ago
What?! No, certainly not. When FaceTime gets adaption you will not know whether Siri will also be able to get adaption. The reverse is also true. They are completely different features.
644.
by ugh 15y ago
The two features aren’t really comparable. It makes no sense to compare the two.

The voice seems to depend on the language. You seemingly can't explicitly switch it, you only can switch languages. It just so happens that iOS has both 'English' and 'British English' as languages, with female and male voice synthesis resp

by ugh 15y ago
The voice synthesis is really nothing new, it has been part of iOS as VoiceOver (Apple's built-in screenreader, an accessibility feature) for a long time. It certainly wouldn't have any problems reading emails and it seems to me that emails

Wait until they roll everything out. You should get a Lion update, an iOS update, an iWork update and an iPhoto update sometime today. iTunes was already updated yesterday.

Reviews can be subjective and there is nothing wrong with that. You read it, you disagree with it and that’s alright.

Here’s a longer conversation with Siri from Macworld: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mNcnj2l6RE I think all the humor is a great move on Apple’s part.

I wasn’t claiming that. It was honest but nice enough to not be bad mouthing.

I’m sorry but I can’t see how what he did was bad mouthing. He was honest.

It’s from memory. Details might be incorrect.

Exactly. Citizens have to be able to inform themselves. Democracy wouldn’t make any sense otherwise.

I think both 3G and 4G are a lot less present in carriers’ marketing in Germany. And maybe I missed it but I haven’t seen a big marketing campaign for 4G in Germany. I wasn’t even aware how widely available it already is†. Carriers in Germa

It’s a pretty safe bet. Apple has had a stable marketshare in this rapidly growing market for a long time.

by ugh 15y ago
Other manufacturers have only themselves to blame for that.

I don’t understand you. Are you suggesting that Apple should ditch iOS?

And what exactly were those people wanting?
