Siri Cracked Open, Theoretically Opening It Up To Other Devices (Or Even Android!)

siriServing as a stark reminder that there are people on the Internet who are way, way too damned clever, the guys over at the iPhone design/development house Applidium claim to have cracked open Siri to take an unsanctioned look at its (her? his?) inner workings. In a rare (but quite welcome. I mean, by us. Probably not by Apple) move, they've gone on to do a rather detailed debriefing of how they got through.So, what does this mean to you? Theoretically, it means that support for Apple's voice-powered portable assistant could be hacked not only onto devices like the iPhone 4, but to anything from laptops to Android phones as well. As the italics on "theoretically" imply, though, there's a bit of a catch.
