eWeek reports: "Siri co-founder Norm Winarsky confirmed Apple has acquired startup Siri, whose virtual personal assistant application lets users of the Apple iPhone 3GS book restaurant tables, buy movie tickets and perform several other tasks all by speaking into their device. Apple did not comment on the buy, which marks a win for the computer maker as it fends off Google, Nokia and others in the arms race for applications that provide consumers with valuable mobile Web resources. Given Apple's approach of keeping everything regarding its applications and platforms in-house, it is doubtful Siri will ever grace Android or BlackBerry."
This is an amazingly smart move by Apple. I hope they integrate this application into the iPhone core OS. If you have not played with the Siri application, its pretty cool. The application developer classifies it as a virtual personal assistant.
It uses location awareness, natural speech recognition and custom language context logic, to help you find a dinning and entertainment where you're currently located.
