Hi,
Just thought I write about something I noticed recently although I can't say exactly when this started. I used to be able to set a reminder with SIRI in a way that if I wanted to be reminded an hour or so before the appointment or whatever I was reminding myself about, I would simply do it in two parts like this: Part 1: Set a reminder for Monday at 8 AM SIRI would then say OK, just tell me what you want to be reminded about. I would then do the second part like this example: Part 2: Dentist appointment at 10 AM SIRI would then confirm: Here is your reminder for Monday at 8 AM, it says: Dentist appointment at 10 AM. Now if I ask SIRI to create a reminder as in part 1 and then tell it what I have above in part 2, the reply will be this: Here is your reminder for Monday at 10 AM, it says "Dentist appointment". In other words it takes the time I want to hear the reminder before the event and adds it to the time I want to be reminded at to create a reminder at the time of the event. I find this very annoying since I always like to remind myself a bit before and to have the actual time of my appointment or phone call or whatever it is as part of the reminder. Just now I wanted to set a reminder about a Skype call I have at 8 AM on Monday. I tried to trick it into doing it by saying it differently like "Set a reminder at 7 AM on Monday" and then "Skype call with Brian at 8 AM" or "Skype call with Brian in 1 hour" or "I have a Skype call in 60 minutes with Brian". Each time it figured out that my Skype call was 1 hour from 7 AM and wanted to create a reminder for 8 AM just called "Skype call with Brian". I finally tricked it by setting the reminder for 7:30 AM and saying "Skype call with Brian in 30" and I guess not saying "30 minutes" confused it enough. Do I have better things to do than to try and be smarter than SIRI? *smile*. Regards, Sieghard -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
