We all know that iPhone 4S has been released with a new voice assistant “Siri”. It is becoming reality Siri is more helpful for the iPhone 4S users. For Apple Siri and iCloud is a step towards Google’s domain. Cloud computing web and web services. At the same time Siri helps you get answers and currently it syncs with wolfram alpha and yelp before running a Google search and it also includes Yahoo and Bing. Especially since 2/3rd of their mobile traffic comes from iOS, so it is the reason for Google to worry.
So when at Google Android boss Andy Robin takes shows up to AllthingsD’s AsiaD he tries o downplay Siri and we so wish that he had a better argument to back up his claim. Robin commented that the phone is a tool for communicating and one shouldn’t be communicating with phone instead. He basically tried to suggest that one isn’t supposed to interact with Siri on the iPhone but with others using the device as a phone. So certainly if making call was only objective of the handheld phones, even my 10 yr old Nokia does that for me. The hogwash from Rubin takes us a decade back and far away from mobile computing. One thing Apple fans want to say is dear Andy Siri makes computing easy, it connects, it get things done…… it makes life easy..!
