Since the launch of Siri and the iPhone 4S, developers have been keen on getting the new personal assistant to work on other Apple devices, mainly the iPhone 4 and the iPad (mainly because you can get either of those for over half off what you pay for the 4S and iPad 2). The problem seen before with previous attempts is that Siri would install, but it wouldn't talk to Apple's Siri servers to give you any proper answers or responses.

The video below shows that the dark ages of Siri's silence on older Apple devices is over. Developer Steven Troughton-Smith was successful in getting Siri to work on a jailbroken iPhone 4S, and therefore used some of the files from the iPhone 4S to use on the iPhone 4 and iPad to make it all work.

Steven Troughton-Smith won't be giving the process away though, but does state that he'll post detailed 20 step process on how to do the hack after the iPhone 4S jailbreak is made available publically.
