Childishly telling it that its gay sometimes gives a funny answer.

You can tell it who your wife, brother, mother-in-law is and then say "call my wife".

Also "Where did Lookers stocks finish today?"

"are you male or female?"

I'm going to use "when's it going to snow" quite a bit in the near future!

I'm disappointed you can't turn it into a woman Sad

Plus it doesn't understand at times, but Jess can have pretty much full on conversations with it!

Android already has excellent voice recognition software...The Gadet show rated it very highly and it's free.

Methinks Apple fans are bigging Siri up as it's the only thing new on the slightly outdated new 4S... Wink (I'm typing this on a McBook Pro BTW...) Defender 110XS SW gone... now VW California 180 4 Motion.

There was apparently a fix for the battery life issue in iOS 5.0.1. Although I've not noticed all that much difference to be honest.

I can get two days out of mine if I don't hammer it, usually over a weekend. Although during the week I have to charge it every night; battery being at about 35-40% in the evening.

Still pretty crap really though I guess...
