Hi Mike, Punctuation is quite easy to use. Just say, for instance, "period," "comma," and the like. Common acronyms are handled automatically based on usage, but I'm not sure there's a definitive list anywhere. Less common ones might require some use of the Siri capitalization commands. These ca

Hi, Now that I have the iPhone 4S, I am starting to experiment with Siri. I was wondering if there was a way to get Siri to use proper punctuation in sentences. Is it possible,for example, to tell Siri to insert punctuation marks in sentences? How can one get Siri to handle acronyms properly

You'll find that the volume will randomly drop -- some times the change is probably attributable to an inadvertent holding of the volume down key. Still, I suspect there may be a bug somewhere. For example, when I pull my phone out of a dock, the speaker volume may be all the way down. If the
