Siri for iPad 2 in iOS 6

Why can't apple get Siri to iPad 2 ,seriously come on it has a A5chip and it is quiet powerful if an iPhone 4s can have it ,which still has a A5 chip?and in ios 6 they give the new iPad Siri and not iPad 2. I'm seriously I'm so disappointed with apple.i hope in future it comes or why not just in ios 6.0.

iPad 2, iOS 5.1.1, iOS 6

I love how all these wonderfully insightful people answer a question that wasn't asked. I refer to readers to the question why can't my iPad 2 get Siri. For those who study the English language you will note the subtle difference in phrasing between that and 'do I have the right to free upgrades'.


You are correct the iPad 2 is just as capable (in fact more) than the iPhone 4S to run Siri. And for those using the car engine comparison I would like you to note that an engine isn't software.... Siri does very little processing and requires little to no processing power as all the work is done by Apple servers. So yes it's a money grab by Apple- make a product obsolete so we can push a new one. It's sad but it seems they have actually invested time and money removing Siri from the iOS for iPads. Note that Siri can actually function on an iPhone 4 (an 4S) but the servers will not respond to requests made from an iPhone 4. I suspect it will be the same on the ipad 2. Apparently billions in profit arent enougb for apple. Tacky.

I'm impressed? How did you get your hands on the design documents and schematics?
