There is no way Steve would have ever allowed something that bad. Looks like a Microsoft commercial.

I thought it was a great commercial.. It really should show Siri's response to "Where can I hide a body." hilarious!

epic.
I agree. If you thought those FaceTime commercials each triggered an "I've been in that situation" emotional response...this one triggers tons of them.

This will really open people's eyes to the practical applications of what Siri can really do.

Simplicity at it's finest. Now on to try to see if these work for me too on my iPhone 4s =)

As is usual for Apple advertisements, this shows people seemingly countless uses for Siri. I think it's a very well-done advert.

This reminds me of being 9 and waiting for my favorite song to come on the radio so I could hurry and record it on my cassette player.
