iPhone 4S Gets Fake Upgrade to 4G

Marco Arment on iPhone now showing "4G" on AT&T:

It’d be more defensible if it only showed “4G” when it was actually hitting those 4G-like speeds, but it just shows “4G” in supposedly high-speed-3G areas whenever it’s connected to AT&T’s network at any speed.

I can't believe Apple agreed to this.

iPad 3 Will Probably Suck

Killian Bell:

Images of leaked iPad 3 components hot off the Foxconn factory floor have been provided to Cult of Mac. They reveal that the internal components of Apple’s third-generation iPad are significantly different to those features in its first- and second-generation tablet. However, its design seems to remain almost the same.

It's going to be a huge disappointment, just like the iPhone 4S.

Siri Reliability

Marco Arment:

Anecdotally, I’ve had about a 50% failure rate recently.

Ben Brooks:

Same here...

This hasn't been my experience at all. Maybe because I'm in Canada, I'm not sure. But I've only found Siri to be getting better and better. I has begun to understand nicknames and recognizes people better than ever. Still, curious.
