For any of you who have the new iPhone 4s, have you tried asking Siri, the built in voice control help, some interesting questions?
Try the following:
What is the meaning of Life
I need to hide a body
Tell me a joke
Knock Knock
And you don't even get the same response each time. To the Meaning of Life one I've had at least 4 different answers including 42!!
And if you ask it about hiding a body it lists local swamps, reservoirs, mines and dumps.
If you're in the US and tell it you feel horny, it lists all the local escort agencies.
Nothing like having a phone with a sense of humour 
Saw a bloke last night in dominoes trying to impress those around with his "Siri" - I'd paid and was leaving by the time it realised he
wanted it to send a txt - hilarious!

Strange isn't it how any mention of an Apple product always generates so much negative response.
We used to reserve this for Microsoft once upon a time, now the underdog has become the one to mock and hate. I suppose success breeds distain.
No need to be defensive - I have no problems with the phone! It does what it does very well, just thought it was amusing!
Well, you seem to be one of the few people on here who don't then, I was expecting another tirade! Last time I posted anything about iPhones
there was about 2 pages of people ranting against them
The voice control stuff is a bit hit and miss though, it needs to be in a quiet surrounding - which is fair enough I suppose. I was showing one mate
all the funny Siri stuff in the car last night, had us in stitches, then we picked up another mate 5 minutes later, tried it again and I couldn't
get it to make any sense at all! Think we were in a poor 3g area....
As I understand it, it sends the voice data back to apple for processing, so if your data connection is dodgy you'll have issues...

The amusing part of the new iphone for me....
Oldest stepson is rather materialistic, and took delivery of his new 4s last week, to replace his 3gs.
Now he has a mobile which looks exactly like the 4 (Mum & brother have a 4) , same case etc with the option to talk at it - Siri (whoopee)
Next morning Siri had been cracked, and was available for download to anyone with a 3gs or 4
Two year contract hahahhahaha

There was some nutjob on Twitter calling for that Westboro church to picket his funeral. I'd have just left it but the tweet said she sent it from her iphone. God hates the appstore?
Someone is collecting them
