So Iris. Built in 8hrs. At a hackathon. By Dexetera.com. Voice control? No. But that's because voice control is already part of the Android OS and works with the keyboard. Iris takes your question and searches everything. So the voice input already there to be connected, they built in text-to-speech and then added a funny bone or heuristic humor. The beta is out. And the first release is due out this week. So given the ease and speed of the release of Iris, I am def. not impressed with Siri.It would be like getting awe struck by the fact you can tie your shoes at the age of 30.
