Localisation
‘Siri’ would be pronounced the same as 尻 shiri (‘buttocks’) or 私利 shiri (‘personal profit’) in Japanese. It will be interesting to see what name Apple pick for this product when they eventually localise it for the Japanese market.
Actually, that raises the question of how it’s supposed to be pronounced in English. Is it supposed to be from ‘yes, sir-ee!’? Or would you pronounce it more like an Italian or Spanish word of that spelling? This should have some bearing on the decision for a good localisation. — Chameleon 05:59, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
question
Does the name mean anythig? Is it an acronym? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.62.162.224 (talk) 02:47, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
- I think this is a reference to the Hyperion Cantos. 195.169.141.54 (talk) 10:28, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
History and whereabouts of Founder and ex-CEO
So what does Dag Kittlaus do these days? Is he involved with Apple? Wouldn't that be interesting information, too?
I've added an interesting link (at least to my take) with him and his VP Engineering (prior to Apple acquisition) but don't have free resources right now to do further research, unfortunatly. http://twitter.com/#!/dagk/ doesn't seem suitable for a start, either 84.174.75.195 (talk) 11:23, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
