Siri adding new language support. But adding English and French "tuned for Canada," really? #WWDCby AlexeiReuters via twitter 6/11/2012 6:21:55 PM -
The local "turning" of Siri is really interesting. Will include local search. Also bringing Siri to new iPad. #WWDC.by adamlashinsky via twitter 6/11/2012 6:22:10 PM -
