  • Siri is a terminator

  • The problem is most people think Siri will be their main method of using the iPhone, and when this isn't the case they start saying it's just a 'gimmick'. But Siri is meant to be a 'tool' not THE tool to aid the user. One isn't gonna walk around talking to it all day, one is gonna use it for specific tasks. When looking at Siri in that context one will appreciate it and not be so quick to dismiss it.
