I looked at the apple website under iPdas. Clicked on compare all models. It shows that the new mini does indeed have siri.

Hi Rob, Given the fact that Apple has updated the iPad twice within 7 months this year and probably ticked off some people who bought the new iPad in March only to find now that they could have had one with better LTE support, a much faster processor and better WiFi, I wouldn't put it past Apple to update the iPad Mini in March especially since now they don't have anything that will be updated until the summer at the earliest and probably next September or October. All Macs have had updates in the last few months, the iPod Touch Fifth Gen just came out, the iPhone 5 also and the iPad Fourth Gen was just announced 7 months after they released the new iPad (third Gen). Also, the iPad Mini has no retina display whereas everything else has one from the iPod Touch to the iPhone, the full-size iPad and both the MacBook Pro 13 and 15 inch. To me that suggests they kept that for the next update and please proof me wrong, but I don't recall a word during the Keynote about the iPad Mini having SIRI. In fact, they compared it a lot to the iPad 2, same screen resolution, same processor and all that and the iPad 2 does not have and did not get SIRI even with iOS 6. I also was interested in buying an iPad Mini, but it would be a total dealbreaker for me if it doesn't have SIRI. I haven't looked up the specs yet online so I'm sure all of us potential iPad Mini buyers would like to know. As I said, don't jump the gun and preorder without finding out for sure unless of course you couldn't care less about SIRI. I am going to be in Vancouver in about 4 weeks so by that time I am sure they will have iPad Minis in the Apple Stores and I look forward to playing around with one, but I think Apple won't get any of my hard-earned Dollars this year.
