		<description><![CDATA[Ars Technica: Siri is iPhone 4S-only today; where will it be tomorrow? The whole thing&#8217;s decent, but for now, skip right down to the bottom of the article and read that section calling out the potential problems: Michael Okuda also noted that voice input is generally inefficient. &#8220;Imagine I&#8217;m looking at some photos, and I [...]]]></description>
