With the decreasing gap between television sets and Internet it is now possible to access almost anything from your Smart TV with your “remote control” BUT not too long.

Yes here comes—Siri after various attempts of including keyboard,mouse,ipod,iphone and even ipads as remote(none of which made a heavy impact) by apple.

Apple is trying even harder to completely eradicate the gap by introducing its artificial intelligent software—Siri.It’s like science-fiction. You sit on your couch and rather than “play” with several remotes or use hand gestures, you simply talk: “Put on the last episode of How I met your mother.” “Play the headlines for today.” “Play some Coldplay music” and yes Siri does the rest.

Of course the tail would go on (apart from asking some retard questions) which whould definitely bring an impact again from the apple after its introduction of first tablet.

“Apple television would have the simplest user interface one could ever imagine” Steve jobs explaining his biographer Walter Isaacson. By this Steve has just made another impact on the world.

“On my quest to learn more about the Apple television project, I learned that executives at Apple knew as far back as 2007 that the company would eventually make a ‘dedicated TV’. This realization came shortly after the company released the Apple TV, a box that connects to any manufacturer’s television to stream iTunes content. Consumers did not flock to the Apple TV, and rather than abandon the project, Apple began calling it a hobby.” said Nick Bilton from New York times.

Who knew that Apple’s hobby would lead us to the futuristic world.

So when will Apple release its next huge impact?

It is said that The company  needs to wait until the cost of large displays falls. The company is now close enough that it could announce the product by late 2012, releasing it to consumers by 2013.

Clearly the product is still in developing stage but the news is definitely killing the patience inside every one of us.

Siri on iPhone 4S lets you use your voice to send messages, schedule meetings, place phone calls, and more.
Ask Siri to do things just by talking the way you talk. Siri understands what you
say, knows what you mean, and even talks back. Siri is so easy to use and does so much, you’ll keep finding more and more ways to use it. It understands what you say.
Talk to Siri as you would to a person. Say something like “Tell my date I will be late.”
“Remind me to call my mom. ” “Any good places to eat around here?” And Siri answers you. It does what you say and finds the information you need .
And then it hits you. You’ re actually having a conversation with your iPhone. It knows what you mean.Siri not only understands what you say, it’ s smart enough to know what you mean . So when you ask
“Any good places to eat  around here?” Siri will
reply “I found a number of restaurants near you.” And it will show you list of top restaurants(according to review)around you.  Siri is proactive, so it will question you until it finds what you’re looking
for. It helps you do the things you do every day.
It helps you do the things you
do every day.
Ask Siri to text your dad, remind you to call the doctor , or find directions, and it figures out which apps to use and who you’re talking about. It finds answers for you from the web through sources like Yelp and WolframAlpha. Using Location Services , it looks up where you live , where you work , and where you are. Then it gives you
information and the best options based on your
current location. From the details in your contacts, it knows your friends, family, boss, and
coworkers. So you can tell Siri things like “Text
My boss I’ m on my way” or “Remind me to make a
dentist appointment when I get to work” or “Call a taxi” and it knows exactly what you mean and what to do . It has so much to tell you.When there’s something you need to do, just ask Siri to help you do it . It uses almost all the built -in
apps on iPhone 4 S to find the information you need . Siri writes and sends email messages and texts — and reads them to you, too . It searches the web for anything and everything you need to know. It plays the songs you want to hear. It helps you find your way and shows you around. It places calls. It schedules meetings. It helps you
remember. And it wakes you up. Siri tells you almost everything . And it even speaks for itself.
Here’ s another amazing way to get things done:
just use your voice. Instead of typing, tap the microphone icon on the keyboard. Then say what
you want to say and iPhone listens, Tap Done, and
iPhone converts your words into text . Use dictation to write messages, take notes, search the
web, and more. Dictation also works with third-party apps, so you can update your Facebook
status, tweet, or write and send Instagrams.

Siri is ready to change almost everything you can possibly think of. This reminds me of SkyNet from terminator.
Soon a revolution is gonna start everyone depending on Siri and again history will be created.
