Siri the new voice assistant in the iOS 5 looks awesome, but the biggest problem with a technology like this is that it can be annoying to other people when you use it around them in public. Also most natural voice recognition technologies are not always accurate, but is better then it was a few years. Also none of the people in the commercial had an accent, and all the environments were pretty quiet.
I also wonder what are the feature limits of the technology, can you randomly ask a question like "what is the value of the US dollar against the Euro", or is there a defined set of features and commands that you have to memorize.
I will have to wait until I can get my hands on one of these devices to find out my answers.
Note: This feature will only be available in the iPhone 4S, and not in the 4 or 3GS.
