iPhone 5 may feature integrated voice control

Following its acquisition of voice control App Siri, Apple looks set to offer integrated voice control in the iPhone 5.

Could be a nice feature, but I found that our South African English accents wreak havoc with voice recognition, so I doubt it will work well over here.

I doubt Apple cares.

That's actually one thing BlackBerry had going for them - they actually included an Afrikaans dictionary (for their SureType keyboards or for auto-correction on their normal keyboards). Pity I tend to type either in English or a seriously mixed Afrikaans!

If I knew that, I would have sold it to the Wallstreet Journal by now.

iPhone 5 will be released at the same time as iOS 5, in September.
