Siri for iPad 2 in iOS 6

as much as i love apple products, i don't understand why they sell 5 year machines that are not 5 year supported, i got 3 generations of iphones, and in each there is always 1 feature that is prime in selling the latest version that is not made available yet the product can handle it...EXAMPLE: siri on iPad 2, we know it works, thanks to jail-b and cydia - many video samples online. why does one have to hack an amassing machine to get features that would have probably boosted their sales if it was made available any from the start. the funny thing is I am sure if it was a paid app in the app store people would pay. hence money in the bank. for people who didn't bother with the iPad 3, their warranties have obviously started expiring so no loss in going the JB route of those features.

In my opinion, to save lost revenue give us what we know the iDevice can do in stead of us giving money to samsung...

I really cant justify getting iPad3 for siri. just like i skipped the iPhone 4 & 4s.

surely it is possible for the would to have "an apple a day😕"

So the reason my iPad 2 don't get dire is because of noise ruduction. Google voice works well on my iPad so thats not good enou. Siri will still be servicable on the iPad 2 and the engine comparison was horrible. The only reason apple didn't put Siri on the iPad 2 is because a siri upgrade is worth a device upgrade. There are a billion things they can improve on the iPad 2. For example the >1 mp camera.... *** no modern day devise should have that bad of a camera. And don't tell me to sell it besides those obvious factors the iPad 2 is worth the 700 I paid 2 week before the new iPad came out.(I did not know about it I was kind of mad). But I knew this what apple does all the time so I will accept my more then capable devise not have siri

Prove your claim that the device is capable. Put up or shut up.

No - YOU prove that it's not. Since you are so defensive on the subject.

I wasn't replying to you. I was replying to the poster above me who has already started another whining discussion about this subject this morning.

Whining about the lack of Siri on this forum isn't going to convince Apple to do anything.

I don't care what Apple fanboys are saying. I bought my iPad 2 less than a year ago. It has the same processor as the iPhone 4s, and I used to have Siri running on it perfectly well. (yeah yeah) At that time, it was the newest model of iPad.

Now, I don't legally have the right to get Siri on my iPad 2, but I can stop buying apple products. I'm the proud owner of 3 iPhones, an iPad and all kinds of other stuff, but it started with my iPhone 3G and it has happened again. I paid too much for a product outclassed by most Android devices, being even more expensive, and Apple fails to give me updates to a brand new device. And NO, it's NOT the hardware. Jailbreak your devices and you'll see. I had Siri on my iPad 2 and my iPhone 3G had background images (even my iPhone 2G did for that matter).

Apple offers premium devices for prices that show it. The OS is polished and all, yeah. But Apple is falling behind of Google, and is taking advantage of the fact that Apple buyers are "loyal". I paid the extra 350$ to get the updates, not the other way around. For God's sake, my girlfriends ANCIENT Samsung Galaxy S is running Android 4.1.

And I know it's "just" Siri, but it's the thought that counts. And I can't get voice navigation either?

Apple is making fun of us, seriously. They know that Apple costumers will always buy Apple products, and then they force us to buy newer devices every year.

That's it, Apple lost a long-time customer.

"It's the thought that counts"?!?! Seriously? Apple is falling behind Google?!?

What planet are you from?

Don't let the door hit in the you know what on the way out.

I don't care I'm just saying apple should show they consumers some respect. Reward us for over paying for your products. You know in china apple employees have the highest suicide rate then anywhere in the world. They care about anybody for them selves. Bringing out new products and completely disowning older ones the are completely good my iPad2 is 2 weeks older then anbodies new iPad. But like I said earlier I'm over it I found out about this earlier in June but I'm over it now Im not going to get SIRI. I could've got the Samsung tab while they will support my product till its impossible to update?

Perhaps this will help you.

haha where did you find that? VERY VERY TRUE.

Well in Europe Android's market share for tablets and phones is now at 57% and rising.

Fact not Fiction. Make of it what you want.

Sweet. If I had my operating system on 100,000 different devices I would hope to have at least 50% of the market share.

Ipad vs like 100 various android tablets. Should be more than 60%

Downloading ios6 stuck on the last little part (probally 3%) for 15 mins the rest took 5. -_- lol

To all, stop eating hamburgers and try pizza sometimes, so well have a healthy competition.
