Rather impressed by how few mistakes it makes.

Can not recall them now but there have been searches where I thought, "No way will it know what I am saying on this one." yet it does.

my *one* big issue with siri is that I have a contact in my phone called "the spectacular mr. fabulous," and whenever I try to text that contact, siri - amanda Jan 23, 08:06 2
- I have told you to just call me SpecFab. -- nm - Spawn Jan 23, 08:08
- "No editorializing, Siri!" -- nm - Reagen Jan 23, 08:08
I use it in the car when I need something local. I can say "pharmacy" and go to the maps, and there it is. -- nm - loosilu Jan 23, 08:02
What do you use it for? I don't even see a need for it. -- nm - Krusty Jan 23, 08:02 14
- Like if I need to call a store, or if I need to find an address. -- nm - Spawn Jan 23, 08:03 6
  - oh, I also use it to make phone calls when I'm driving I find this to be a great feature. -- nm - amanda Jan 23, 08:04 5
    - I also use it for traffic maps while driving. Their traffic maps are shockingly accurate. - loosilu Jan 23, 08:06 3
      - they use crowd source data from everyone else using maps who have gps turned on. -- nm - decline Jan 23, 08:21 2
        
        I knew it! you can really tell. It's accurate enough that I can pick the right exit to bail out. -- nm - loosilu Jan 23, 08:22 1
        
        yeah. I love how useful it is. -- nm - decline Jan 23, 08:24
    - I use the handsfree for that. -- nm - Spawn Jan 23, 08:05
- try "how do you say I love you in italian" -- nm - loosilu Jan 23, 08:02 6
  - It's fine for a phrase or two but that wouldn't work as a translator. Driving is where it seems to get the most use and that doesn't do anything for - Krusty Jan 23, 08:11 5
    - I use it while walking, too! -- nm - Spawn Jan 23, 08:17
    - I feel like asking my phone to do something in a public place is kind of douchey. like, I just type. I don't need to hear your searches, you don't - amanda Jan 23, 08:15 2
      - Agreeance. -- nm - Spawn Jan 23, 08:18
      - I talk into mine like a speakerphone all the time. SOrry if I look like a douche. I find it easier to hear it that way. -- nm - loosilu Jan 23, 08:18
    - I have fun with it for searches, even when not driving. -- nm - loosilu Jan 23, 08:12
