I am amazed at hearing how some people go through so much shit just to get a pirate version of Siri. The legit version is only ã2.49 and would work staight out of the box FFS!.  |

That is quite surprising. I thought people only used pirating methods for pricey items when they needed them.

Is the piratey version set up for hacking/playing/editing? That could easily be the draw.

When I first got my iPod Touch somebody installed Cydia on it for me, I've never had a reason to use Cydia to this day and probably never will.
Look at this game for instance: www.mrqwak.com/games/retroracing/
The person that put Cydia on my device laughed at me in a sarcastic and snorting way because I paid money for it, the game was £1.49 and the enhanced car pack was a further £0.69. That developer put a lot of time and effort into that game and I can't see any reason to begrudge him of so little money for such a big effort. |

Cydia is good for a couple of things, such as adding widgets to the home screens, enabling wallpaper and multitasking on older ipods, a bunch of random hacks for arranging icons differently and of course emulators.

I understand that Cydia may have legitimate uses but ripping-off low priced games is SoScrooge. If they can afford to buy the device then surely they can afford to pay a couple of quid for a game or app. |

There are some websites that mention that Siri, or the idea for Siri, was ripped from Star Trek.
Talking Computer.
Why someone did not make something similar, sooner.
