iDownloadBlog reports on a new package available for jailbroken iPhones that enables Siri-like dictation on previous generation iPhones. The package is called Siri0us and is being distributed via Cydia to jailbroken devices only.
Dictation works great on the iPhone 4, transcribing words into text rather quickly. The technology is actually Naunce-based dictation, but the end result is pretty much the same as Apple’s Siri. As you can see in the video, small ads are displayed in the bar above the mic icon. You will need an internet connection for the microphone to show up.
The package seems to emulate the Siri interface for dictation, but reportedly uses Nuance speech recognition on the backend. This video shows it in action:

Pretty silly to name this one Siri. Just attention bait from its author.
do with Siri, the intelligent assistant.
If it isn't even using Apple's server, I don't think there is any point for this article.
I've installed it on my i4 running 5.0 and it works great. Not 100% accurate but that could be due to my poor enunciation.
