LMAO - It was bound to happen - Siri fun - Off-topic

People just love to screw with stuff and see what happens...LOL
They took two iPhone 4S' and made them confuse each other.

Good one

Me and my mate set Talking Tom off with Talking Tom listening. Obviously it just repeats what you say, but it was funny nonetheless. It just became a garbled squeak after a little while.

interesting

Oooops! Apple just got told on...lol

Yup, they are real. I saw a couple of these in a video yesterday I guess this is why it's positive that Siri runs from a server.

Hmmm...if that's indeed the case, it's not the advancement I thought it was. If it's getting its responses from a server, it isn't processing its own responses. Any phone would be able to do that...basically acting as a phone call to a server and the server doing the processing of responses and sending those responses to the phone as a reply.

Yup, and that's why it's not working on the iPhone 4 (yet) since Apple isn't authenticating Siri commands from an iPhone 4.
But the thing that's good with the server is that Apple can add and develope Siri on-the-go without releasing OS updates, and with that develope Siri much faster - and of course insert some highly amusing answers!
But yeah, an Android device could easily do this, but that's not the case here. Siri is a fine piece of software, and Google will have to put a lot of energy into this to match Siri IMO. I don't think it's the response that's impressive (although it's pretty impressive), but the way Siri understands evrything so easily is the most impressive. You don't have to SPEAK CLEARLY AND SLOOOOOW

Apparently Siri used to be available for purchase on the appstore, until apple bought it out and locked it down to the iphail4.
There are many features of IOS5 which independent developers submitted to the appstore but were rejected, only to have their app stolen by apple, in some cases the name is kept and their logo changed slightly.

that was funny

Xaccers: Yeah but Apple buyed them years ago before the iPhone 4 i believe.

Microsoft "Courier" secret tablet

We've been dying to know more about Microsoft's Courier tablet / e-book device ever since we first caught wind of it last September, and while our entreaties to Mr. Ballmer went unanswered, we just learned some very interesting information from an extremely trusted source. We're told Courier will function as a "digital journal," and it's designed to be seriously portable: it's under an inch thick, weighs a little over a pound, and isn't much bigger than a 5x7 photo when closed. That's a lot smaller than we expected -- this new picture really puts it into perspective -- and the internals apparently reflect that emphasis on mobility: rather than Windows 7, we're told the Courier is built on Tegra 2 and runs on the same OS as the Zune HD, Pink, and Windows Mobile 7 Series, which we're taking to mean Windows CE 6.

Please Microsoft, you already own most of my room, I'm BEGGING you to own my notebook as well xD
Just make this a reality and my world is complete.
After graduating college, I'm not sure what I might need this for (except for notes in meetings and then that's awesome), but if stuff like this is being developed in secret at Microsoft, then that is AWESOME.
I love secret stuff like that!
I hope this actually gets released and has good batterylife/inking. If so, then I can finally dump my old sc2010 tablet
Can some one justify the name given to this device ... and then whats so secret about it whan net is spewn with the images and news about it
lol im so exited about this device. hopefully we will know more @ 12th apr.
ms unlike apple never really aimed to be in the hardware producing industry
sure they got the xbox and zunes now but mainly they make concepts showing
how what their software can do with the right hardware so
I would not be surprised if Courier is such a concept prototype which will never become a real product but if it does I would sure like one

Exactly my words. They would be a good competitor though if they are really going to produce these products.
This is very interesting and a nice sleek design makes for a good product in my book!
Hopefully this will be for real someday...
Love the premise.
Far too concepty though.
Want to see real hardware...sadly probably wont be release before Apple brainwashes folks into thinking the ipad is what to buy.

I had to laugh when I read this!
Since it's German, I'll try to roughly translate it:
Slowly, this is no longer funny.
My son has (better say 'had') an iPhone and was happy with it (although after the firmware update, it was somehow totally slow, but I don't know much about such things).
But after he was flamed several times in the school and was recently beat up by a group of (as he said) Android rowdies, he wants to give it up and in the meantime switched back to his old Nokia.
Now he wants an Android phone and I can flog the iPhone on Ebay. Realy great!

I lol'd.. Android Rowdies... new type of clique violence in schools now I guess then!
Thanks for the translation!
haha
................
Too bad here in the city more people use iCraps. I think I need a special skin that makes my N1 look like an iPhone, so I don't get beat up by iPhone rowdies.
Haha yeah scary bunch they are don't worry though they wont beat you they think they got an app for that and I think they prefer the term iRowdies haha

Put WP7 on this BB and I'd freak out

This is gorgeous. The only problem? It has Blackberry OS all over it stinking it up to high Valhalla. Put WP7 on it and I'd run you all over to get to it.

not bad, it actually looks nice
now it'll take a real test drive to see if it can actually type as fast as the older keyboard design
Why the hell would you want to have WP7 on that? Small screen, physical qwerty to make absolutely no use of your epicly smooth keyboard ... And you can run all over my cat to get to that thing, stupid expensive. lol

Down to one, and it's the adopted one that was beaten and, apparently, talked down to for years. And has developed a puking streak. Actually, don't step on him, apart from the puking he is a sweet guy. lol
I will admit, that is a pretty sexy device ...
Definitely wouldn't make use of the awesome that is wp7

Yeah, both of my girls are special to me. My older one has a puking issue also. I have to keep her one food and never alter it. Any changes and her stomach can't take it. My other one is a female Garfield. She's a garbage disposal. Wherever there is food being eaten, her little eyes will be watching it and she will make sure everyone sees her. She's a little butterball.
Yeah, designed by Porche is definitely a plus.

Apple topples to Samsung. No longer best selling OEM.

In a recent study by ComScore, it seems that Apple is on a very bad decline. The way things used to be were this:
Apple sold the most devices, Android was the most popular OS.
Now it seems Apple has even lost the title of most cell phones sold. Samsung is now the top dog in the mobile world and Android is STILL the most popular OS. This is not looking good for Apple. Not saying that I want Apple to crumble and fail though, as everyone knows, competition brings innovation and let's all be honest. Without Apple and the iOS, there is NO competition for Android.
Android OS dominates the Market:

Samsung dominates OEM sales:
Apple never sold more total phones than samsung. Apple has the single phone that sells the most, and they still do. Your graphic even shows that Apple is gaining in overall slice of the mobile pie vs Samsung. (Sammy shows a -.1 drop, while Apple shows a +2 gain over the same period of time...) So don't worry, competition is alive and well, until Apple gets a patent for that too. =P
I personally hate Apple so this makes me feel good owning an Android device.

What's that saying about honey, vinegar and bees
not sure why we should care about this.
if you wanted svdo then why buy an s4? the specs were released at least a month in advance.
man.. i really wish i had a custom SGS4 with my avatar on it....
i figure if samsung is watching then i might as well ask
I thought manufactures aren't supposed to post/monitor these sites. Although I'm sure they very well due, I swear I heard that a long time ago. Either way, too funny

I think its great they would reach out to someone like that. Of course its something they have no control over... when its a real bug we never hear anything.

I'm sure they monitor them, but it's not smart for them to post on them as they get ripped by someone no matter what they say. Kind of like the example in the OP above. I'm betting that support person will not be reaching out to anyone again anytime soon!
Its a shame really, they used to have developer relations and tried to reach out to the community with samsungjohn. however its just too much for one person and needs a whole team, we had kernel sources, responses from samsung and just a better connection with them.
its when samsung really took off in the rooting community.
I really miss this feature from the sgs3. It's too bad they cheaped out on us

If Sprint's LTE was anywhere as robust as their 3G (which in itself is not saying much) then this would not be much of an issue, but it's not.
Sometimes you wonder why they make such bone-headed decisions. Why couldn't they just leave the SVDO support in there. I doubt they can point to some incompatibility issue with anything like CPU or SoC or physical design etc..
OP is funny?
SVDO exclusion is almost certainly a Sprint decision, as no other phone besides the s3 and ltevo had it, or will have it.
And referencing T-mobile LTE? really? Missed that announcement where their LTE network is magically complete
