Siri used to think the Lumia 900 was the best phone, but she has been ‘corrected’
Posted on May 14, 2012 | 2 CommentsLove it. A few days back we heard that if you asked Siri what the smartphone (not smart phone) is, it would reply back with the Lumia 900 by Nokia.

You thought Siri was slanted, Iris is FAR worse
Posted on February 7, 2012 | No CommentsWe all remember the dust up around Siri and its refusal to give directions to an abortion clinic.

Posted on December 16, 2011 | No CommentsI’m not fully convinced here, but the general talk around in interwebs is that the oversite of leaving vfdecrype key in the unencrypted ramdisk basically means its fair play.

Siri will not give you directions to an abortion clinic; purpose programming or bad dataset?
Posted on November 29, 2011 | 3 CommentsFound this story from a tweet. Seems that when you ask Siri for an abortion clinic, it will say it can not find any, or send you to a CPC clinic, (Anti-abortion clinic). This has been reproduced many times so its not a glitch based on location or timing thing. ... -

Funny iphone4s Siri replies. Proof enough there are a few Easter Eggs in Siri.
Posted on October 14, 2011 | 18 CommentsI’m sure this list will grow, but I came across these reading Ultrasnow.
