New iPhone 4S commercials

Apple has released two more iPhone 4S commercials that feature Siri, the virtual personal assistant.  The reviews on Siri are mixed but there is no denying that this feature is up and coming after a few less than stellar attempts by other phone makers.

If you have never heard of Siri or have heard of Siri and keep asking yourself what the heck it is, I'll tell you!  Siri is a virtual person assistant that is featured on the iPhone 4S which was released in October of 2011.  I have found it to be very useful.  It will transcribe a text message by saying "Tell my wife I am on my way home", it will remind you to complete a certain task on a specific day at a specific time, it will find directions for you, it will tell you how many calories are in a bagel, and so on and so on.  It is still in beta, which in tech terms means it is in a testing phase to work out the kinks and bugs, but I think once Apple has a chance to tweak it and perfect it, it will be a feature people can't live without.  Check out the two new commercials below.  If you have any questions about Siri, leave a comment or send an email!
