Siri iPhone 3GS proof-of-concept port shown off

Thanks to chpwn and Steve Stroughton-Smith, Ryan Petrich has successfully shown off a proof-of-concept Siri port on iPhone 3GS. It doesn't work as well as the iPhone 4 port, mind you, but that's easily overshadowed by the sheer coolness factor.

No word on how or when, if ever, this will come to an iPhone 3GS near you. Whether due to beta-status, server load, Nuance licensing restrictions, or simple product differentiation, Apple has chosen to keep Siri exclusive to the iPhone 4S

Interesting. When is the BUG FIX for iOS 5 on a 3GS coming out?

Jordan says:

I don't want to see any more proof-of-concepts. I want a release date for when it hits the jailbreak community. Period.

Mad says:

I don't get it, why should siri be exclusive to the iphone 4s ?
This is so nokia-ish.
Thanks Apple

Apple's way of making everyone open their wallet and upgrade to a device that is almost identical to iphone 4. You want the coolest upgrade that is software driven and should work on your iphone 4 that you bought just 1 year ago? Fork out a couple hundred bucks. THANKS APPLE
