I can't tell if you're you are actually this inane or just pushing buttons for the fun of it because you blindly missed my point. ~4 beta products over the past 12 years hardly contends to, "all of the time."
Also, eehd never said that the 4S was underpowered in comparison to the 4. He merely stated that, "[Siri] has nothing to do with hardware," because as stated, seen, and replicated, it doesn't.

1) You said name three and then you claim that there haven't been enough over 12 years. You might want to read up on what constitutes a fallacious arguments.
2) There have been a lot of minor updates that all the public have had, like iTunes and Safar Betas, and there have been constant public, as in not private to Apple developers, Betas. We just got one yesterday for iOS 5.0.1. Now, you might argue that those are private because you need a developer account, but I'll refer to the Public APIs that 3rd-party devs can use and the Private APIs they can't, so even though you might not think these Betas could be considered public, but they are. Hell, we even get a thousand articles on the internet every time they hit.
3) Here is eehd's exact words and my reply.

You and eehd seriously can't see how the iPhone 4 is inferior to the iPhone 4S because of the hardware, as well as the inclusion of the Siri. if you don't then I ask you how you think the iPhone 4S will sell in most of the world where Siri is not available?
It is Apple's right to restrict Siri to iPhone 4S, no one is forcing you to buy an iPhone so no need to whine about it.
The OP point was that if MS pulled the same thing (which they also have a right to) Apple sheeple fanboys would be all over them... but of course Apple can take a dump on them and they'll say "Thank you"

Wow. What a well-thought-out and impressive point.
Shame, then, that Android's business model revolves around not giving existing hardware any software updates whatsoever and you don't hear hide nor hair about that here until the Android trolls try to make fun of Apple for not giving Siri to existing models.
To summarize, you're completely wrong on every point you've tried to make here.
There's been quite a bit of talk about Siri powering the Apple HDTV. I don't think this is right. If you read the book, Steve says, "I finally cracked it." But, the book describes his first interaction with Siri at the Board meeting where he resigned right before his death.
I'm just not sure. I guess it's possible (and likely) that he knew about the technology, but given his health there at the end, he was probably pretty hands-off at that point, and may not have specifically applied voice control to the TV, although it'd be nice.
Now, if the TV turns out to not have Siri, we're all going to be sad

1. Really? What was the last major beta released to the public?
2. Duh. Who would have thought that the 4S wouldn't have superior hardware? However, this upgraded hardware is not needed for Siri.
Just sayin'.

1. Really? List three major betas released to the public? (I'll even give you one, Facetime).
FaceTime. Siri. OS X. iWork.com. ET CETERA.
