iPhone-Ticker.de points us to a hands on demo video of Siri on the new iPhone 4S. Siri is Apple's new voice assistant that is designed to provide you with some voice-only capabilities on your iPhone 4S.

The reviewer also briefly walks through some of the other iOS 5 features. iOS 5 (without Siri) will be launched on October 12th.
Meanwhile another video by Stuff.tv is also making the rounds. This was recorded at Apple's media event last week and shows some more examples of what Siri is capable of.

Siri is an iPhone 4S exclusive feature. The iPhone 4S will be officially launched on Friday, October 14th.
