Siri Available for iPad 3?

As apple’s highly recommended voice service, Siri has won people’s favour since its debut. People love to make difficulties for it and even in the latest episode of The Big Bang Theory, the bachelor Raj flirted with Siri. We fully convince that Siri will surge up a new tide of scientific and technological revolution. But we have to ask a question beforehand: Will Siri be available for iPad?

The previous iPads will probably miss Siri because of the absence of noise-reduction circuitry. But people have already paid close attention to the upcoming iPad 3.According to Mark Gurman of 9to5mac, a new section appeared in the keyboard menu in iOS 5.1 beta 3 called “About Privacy and Dictation”. This section wasn’t there before so it looks like Apple is working on bringing the Dictation part of Siri to its tablet. Although no one can ensure that Apple will keep this part in the future iOS, this discovery has intrigued everyone. Will iPad 3 have Siri?

But here, it is necessary to clarify a fact that Siri is basically an iPhone 4S-specific interface rather than an app for iOS. What really plays a role is the server for Siri. This server firstly encodes the voice messages into a digital file which the facilities can recognize. Then after processingin the cloud, the server will present the results on the screen. This process sounds very lengthy, but it can be done in a moment.

According to the description above, Siri is an Internet-based service which provides voice search. Siri cannot work in the situation that the network is broken or the server breaks down. So, John Brownlee of Cult of Mac guessed that WiFi-only iPad 3 and iPod touch will fail to feature Siri because these devices cannot always connect to Internet via 3G as iPhone and iPad 3G. For these devices, even Siri is installed but it will be not available if there is no internet connection. Apple in pursuit of user experience andreliableimplementations of technology will not want to see such embarrassments.
