Siri from the steering wheel???

My SUV activates Siri via the talk button, long press.

To clarify I'm talking about the dedicated Siri button shown in the presentation (which allows you to directly access car functionality). Not the standard bluetooth commands most cars/bluetooth speakerphones have nowadays.

It may be worth mentioning that Siri is already pretty accessible through existing, widely available Bluetooth hands-free support. Both with my Nissan LEAF's stock system and my RAV4's Pioneer aftermarket system, I can reach over and hold down the home button on my iPhone to initiate voice interaction with Siri though the car's microphone and speakers (as opposed to the phone's). The a/v system mutes the current audio and Siri chirps and I can make vocal requests for info, send a message or whatever and the answers come back through the car speakers. That's just Bluetooth support. So it's reasonable to expect at least this level of "integration" with the Model S. Though of course how well that works in the presence of noise is largely dependent on your car's microphone and noise cancellation. The LEAF's works great...

I'll second that. I find the LEAF hands-free audio works very well. I listen to the radio every day on my commute, and when a call comes in, just clear conversation then back to the music when done. SIRI works as well in the car as it does when I am using the handset by itself... Which is to say sometimes it mis-hears me either way...

your LEAF is running Windows Embedded Automotive :tongue: I don't need Siri style input myself, just hope the bluetooth integration is as good as the LEAF's (no mention of what level of bluetooth support we'll see)
