Far Cry 3 And The Stranger In A Strange Land Apple has the personal assistant Siri. DoCoMo, a major mobile service provider in Japan, has the Syabette Concier. With the Japanese version of Siri being recently introduced, one man on YouTube tested the two voice controlled assistants to see how they differ.
The iPhone iteration of 5th Cell’s magical word puzzle game gains voice control on the 4S, integrating Siri’s voice recognition technology in Scribblenauts: Remix to make you say things like “Giant Flying Kielbasa” in mixed company.

When people release sales figures, I often struggle to find perspective. Is it a success? Is this spin? But when you consider that sales of the iPhone 4S (four million units in three days) actually doubled sales of the iPhone 4 in a similar period — well, I think it’s safe to say things are pretty peachy for Apple.
“What is Ubisoft?” I ask Siri. The only reason I ask that question is I have an package from Ubisoft on my desk. And I have no imagination.
