Hi Chris, I use SIRI with my iPhone 4S and Voiceover turned on all the time both for asking it to dial numbers, for asking questions and for dictation. It works fine, only thing is that if Voiceover is not turned on SIRI will automatically listen if, for example, you say "Text Christopher Hallsworth" and if you not follow right away with what you want the text message to say, SIRI will say something ike "What do you want to say to Christopher Hallsworth". If you have Voiceover on you have to double tap or press the home key again to make SIRI listen, if Voiceover is off you can simply speak your message and SIRI will hear it.

What I can't get over is the fact it just recognized my voice instantly without training. I said hello, it said hello back. Then I said how are you? It said I'm very well.

But she told me about the Weather app opening. >> I just find this amazing because I tried a few third party Voice Dictation apps, namely Vokul, on my iPhone 4, and they do not like my unusually high voice at all.
