That includes searching the Web, setting reminders, and checking stock prices. During an interview at the recent D10 conference, Apple CEO Tim Cook hinted that the software had an upgrade in the works, noting that "a lot of people" were working to improve the technology.

In addition to English, French, German and Japanese, Siri can now converse in Spanish, Italian, Korean, Mandarin, and Cantonese.	From: DownloadSoftwares Views: 0 0 ratings
