Siri modding and porting has been aplenty over the course of the last two months, with modders, developers and spectators collectively keeping a watchful eye on Apple's voice-recognition technology.
Well folks, it doesn't really get anymore random, weird or indeed wonderful than this. Coming out of the Music Hack Day 2011 in London, this video shows one iPhone 4S and Siri laying down some beats ala Notorious B.I.G.. The track of choice? Hypnotize, and we're sure you'll be hypnotized by the performance, too.
Siri is undoubtedly the standout feature of Apple's iPhone 4S. So much so, that we're fairly sure that the feature is selling iPhone 4S handsets on its own, just because it makes for a hell of a demo inside an Apple Store.
A few days ago, we talked about a new Cydia tweak called Siri0us which allowed folks with older iOS devices such as iPhone 3GS, 4 and iPod touch 4G to use Siri Dictation. Well, now we’ve received news of an all-new Siri tweak called H1Siri which claims full Siri functionality on iPhone 4 and iPod touch 4. Details after the jump!
A few days ago a video surfaced of one YouTube user comparing the abilities of Apple's Siri and Microsoft's Tellme software. With Siri found on the new iPhone 4S and Tellme being part of Windows Phone 7, it was really only a matter of time before the two were compared head-to-head.
Looks like we can add Robin Williams to the list of people who are in love with Siri. Apple has included the assistant in every iPhone 4S. With reports of Siri being somewhat cruel (just kidding) to some, it’s nice to see the application in a lighthearted way.
TouchPad for iOS has built up a reputation for being one of the smoothest remote keyboard and Trackpad apps to do it, with functionality and features second to none.
Ever since Siri released on the iPhone 4S about a couple of months, we’ve seen an outpour of Siri-like apps for Android. None of these apps, to be honest, have reached the level of ease-of-use that Siri offers, but this new alternative that has popped up today may just give it some real competition. Details after the jump!
New Plugins For Siri Proxy: Google Voice, Wake On LAN, iTunes Control And Launch Any Program [VIDEO]
About one week ago, we published a post talking about how this one developer managed to open Siri up for other developers so they could come up with plugins that would extend its functionality beyond the usual wake-me-up, play-me-this-song, tell-me-the-weather type commands. We’ve talked about a couple of pieces of software that make use of this and, today in this post, we’ll be talking about four more plugins.
Apple certainly made a splash with the release of Siri, even though it is in some sort of beta flavored flux. With nothing quite like it out there on any other device, and the decision to limit its availability to the new iPhone 4S, Apple both gave a reason to upgrade to iPhone 4 owners, and made the competition sit up and take notice at the same time.
