Not sure if this has been posted already but someone has developed a version of Siri for android! its called Iris
Still an Alpha version so by no means perfect but it does look to have great potential.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.dexetra.iris&rdid=com.dexetra.iris&rdot=1&pli=1
I am downloading it now.
This is why android is better than iOS...we can have all of their features but they can't have all of ours.
Speaktoit Virtual assistant has been around a bit longer and seems to work a bit better IMO.
isis definitely has a polished look to it, but it's not that smart, YET.
Out of 5 questions, it only got 1 right, "Who is Lady Gaga?" HA!
"When did Hawaii become a part of the United States?" "Just now." :/
"What is 37 * 5?" "A number." :X
I'll keep it on my phone to see how it progresses, but I won't be using it much right now.

"When we the Galaxy Nexus be released?" "When the fat lady sings!"
The other was asking for the address of someone in my Contacts. But no matter how I enunciated it kept changing his last name to "Agassi tech".
Also, how is "just now" an acceptable answer for "When did Hawaii become a part of the United States?"
Oh and as much as I hate to promote it, Siri can do math, so while it is correct, "a number" isn't really a sufficient answer.
None of them even come close to Siri unfortunately....need ore time for some of these newer apps to be developed further.

Iris has some potential to it, I asked it some questions and it seems like it has some "intelligence" in it. It knows basic things like its name and who made it, but difficult questions don't really get answers that are precise.
ex. Do you have fun? "Yes..Although..It's quiet"
I am on fire. "You will need to contact..."
What am I? "A robot"
Another? "Another WHAT?"
With more effort this can become really good, my questions sometimes got odd answers and others were sarcastic in tone.
set iris as default?
Anyone know how to set IRIS as default voice search?

I also asked "When did Hawaii become a state" and it told me August 21st 1959.
Then I asked "What is 37 multiplied by 5" and it told me 185.
I guess it's just in how you ask!
How do you guys get it to talk? I try to hit the mic button, but nothing shows up, does it use the keyboard's mic or something?
I've been playing with this one lately, it's pretty good. Seems alot better than Iris IMO, can ask things in a variety of ways and it knows.

Vlingo is really good as well, just doesn't do random things, only phone functions.

2.Voice Search(ON market or in ROM)

Sorry, even for an Alpha, this is FAR away from being even close to what Siri is.
Unless the anwsers are (virtually) instant, its hardly worth being called "Android's own Siri".
Try vlingo! It's been around before siri an it's quite good!

Even i love Android, no, its not ... iOS is next to perfect OS for the hardware its running on and will be always better then any other mobile system as long as it runs on Apple's hardware since its closed platform developed for iPhone and iPad only, unlike Android. Just saying.
i will try it
Iris is rather funny, i enjoy it
looking forward for the further development..

Yes, because when you think ROAD you think "Lets talk a walk", moron. They can say its for walking, that doesnt mean people wont use it while driving. In fact, I'd wager the majority of its users will be driving.
Obviously, your brain was not made for THINKING, you know that thing where you make logical inferences based on the information present.
He just posted today in development forum to announce that KB1 source is out. This, after we've known about it for a week, and already have custom kernels built off the source. Makes me want to add a second punchline to a joke I read:
There was a pilot flying a small single engine charter plane, with a couple of very important executives on board. He was coming into Seattle airport through thick fog with less than 10m visibility when his instruments went out. So he began circling around looking for landmark. After an hour or so, he starts running pretty low on fuel and the passengers are getting very nervous. Finally, a small opening in the fog appears and he sees a tall building with one guy working alone on the fifth floor. The pilot banks the plane around, rolls down the window and shouts to the guy "Hey, where am I? To this, the solitary office worker replies "You're in a plane." The pilot rolls up the window, executes a 275 degree turn and proceeds to execute a perfect blind landing on the runway of the airport 5 miles away. Just as the plane stops, so does the engine as the fuel has run out.
The passengers are amazed and one asks how he did it. "Simple" replies the pilot, "I asked the guy in that building a simple question. The answer he gave me was 100 percent correct, but absolutely useless, therefore that must be Microsoft's support office and from there the airport is just a while away."
As they are getting off the airplane, they see a lone figure running down the runway screaming, "I know where you are. You are in Seattle." Everyone asks the pilot, "Who is this guy?" The pilot says, "Samsung tech support."

I really, really deeply despise HTC Sense, its worthless, is there a Nexus One/Nexus S style Generic Android Rom for this phone. It has to be 100% stock Android.
So you bought an Sensation (which MAJOR selling point is Sense) for what reason??
Anyway, questions go in Q&A
Yeah? I suppose you also like pink frosted cookies, daises, and cars that look like lunchboxes also known as the Prius. Anyways, nobody asked you to question my intentions and reasoning behind my decision to purchase the sensation, and last I checked the hardware was the selling point shmuck. If you have an answer for me, please answer, if you don't then don't leave a stupid comment like 'EddyOS'
CM7 nightlies will be here soon (hopefully) Meanwhile you can try nosense script and some mixed ROMS (meaning it has some things from Sense and some from AOSP)

Bugs? What bugs?
Love it or hate it...without iOS, there would be no Android or any finger-based OS at all...
It amazes me that people forget that resistive touchscreen was the hottest thing available until Apple's hardware and software changed everything...
I guess only people that used WM5/6 can truly understand how much things have changed.
And yes, I do think the lawsuits are pointless and stupid. However, it goes both ways. Heck, Motorola is "winning" against Apple right now. No push email for Germany users lol.
so i wonder what's gonna happen. Will they drop the one x?

You forget who Apple drew inspiration from...namely Palm (lots and lots on inspiration) and the LG Prada with its capacitive touchscreen. But Apple did do a good job combining these two.
I wonder if HTC saw this coming and wanted to get some hardware through customs before the deadline. Could explain a few of the bugs...
I am confused though. There's a thread about clickable links in email not working.
However, my links in my messages and emails click just fine and open in my default browser...
So is it possible that an update will cripple these functions in the future?

You have to manually fix it. If you want YouTube links to open in the YouTube app, you have to remove the HTCLinkifydispatcher.apk in Systems/App and reboot

Whether or not they are being like security guards, they are right about this going in general.
