iPad 3 Launching With Siri – How True is this?
iPad 3’s Siri has been a hot issue and with the current launching of iOS 5.1 beta 3 –because of this iPad 3 rumor, the majority of developers believe that it’s not anymore impossible that Siri’s going to be on the tablet very soon. This newest beta code did not reveal much about future devices from Apple, however 9to5mac “something potentially major”, so, let’s just hope for the best from them.
The references for Siri Dictation was actually shown in the code and upon exploring the new beta 3 settings application, “About Privacy and Dictation” shows up in a new section from the keyboard menu. This breakthrough as an iPad 3 feature was first discovered from the iPad 2. As you open the menu option, a screen with some legal jargons, as well as some useful information pertaining to the Apple’s Siri Dictation would show up.
Given that you will be using the new iPad 3 and you choose to use the feature called the keyboard dictation on your device, whatever that you dictate is recorded and will be sent to Apple in order for them to convert all the things that you said into text. Some data such as you first name, nickname and etc. will also be sent by Apple through your device.
And what exactly does this mean? Actually, the Dictation feature will not operate on your iPad 2 if you are using the iOS 5.1 beta 3. With this being said, there are so many iPad 3 rumors roaming around that there is going to be another breakthrough for the iPad that will eventually make a higher selling point for the new iPad 3 upon its release (we are expending our hard earned cash on the latter).
If we are going to remember back the iPhone 4S which receives Siri together with Siri Dictation through the use of iOS 5.0, and if ever Apple will adhere to the very same pattern to be their mobile counterpart, this is surely not impossible to happen in the near future. Those from the iPod touch generation with retina display also claim that their legal screen and keyboard menu appear for them as well, thus, it simply implies that there is a probability of Apple trying to aim the very same technology for their own iPod touch line.
For now, it is way too early to tell that the Siri Dictation is the sole option available for the iPad 3 based on this current news. As a matter of fact, there was a report stating that Apple is continuously testing (of course with success) a sample iPad having the same full Siri experience. Additionally, this only proves to show that they also have the intention of rolling out iPad 3 with Siri. Lastly, for the iPad 3 release without Siri, it would be difficult to convince iPad 2 users to switch to the iPad 3. We just have to wait and see until the iPad 3 release for us to know what innovations were made on the iPad 2.
