Japanese Siri vs Shabette Concier [video]

Apple added Japanese support for Siri in its most recent software update, iOS 5.1, but it appears that the voice-activated assistant doesn’t perform as well as competing service Shabette Concier from NTT Docomo.

Apple added Japanese support for Siri in its most recent software update, iOS 5.1, but it appears that the voice-activated assistant doesn’t perform as well as competing service Shabette Concier from NTT Docomo. This video pits the two head-to-head and finds that Siri has a couple of important shortcomings. Noticeably, its language processing doesn’t seem to handle colloquial speech as well as Shabette Concier and there isn’t support for maps or location lookup for restaurants and hospitals yet.

Rumor: iOS 4.3 With Personal Hotspot Feature For All iPhones Planned For March

rumor has it that Apple plans on releasing iOS 4.3 with personal hotspot feature for all iPhones in March.

According to BGR, the personal hotspot feature that debuted on the Verizon iPhone yesterday will, in fact, be making its way to all iPhones in iOS 4.3. We’re sure there will need to be carrier support for this feature, and for AT&T users it is entirely possible we might not see this right away. For those of you with more lenient carriers, however, we are sure you will be pleased to learn that you’ll be able to connect up to five devices over Wi-Fi to the iPhone’s cellular data connection. We are told the OS version will be 8F5148b, the baseband will be 04.08.00, and technical acceptance is planned for March.

iPhone Configuration Utility lets you easily create, maintain, encrypt, and install configuration profiles, track and install provisioning profiles and authorized applications, and capture device information including console logs.
