In less than 24 hours Tim Cook and company will take the stage at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium to unveil Apple’s latest products. We pretty much already know everything Apple’s going to announce, but if you ask Siri to give you a hint her responses are just as maddening as they were when Apple sent out invites.

Apple updated Siri’s hints this morning in anticipation of the event, and while some of the responses begin to appear to reveal info, the digital assistant gets the last laugh in the end.

Check out Siri’s five new hints:

Hint: it spells ‘gotcha’

    well, reminders works!

    Here’s another one: “OK. It’s smaller than a Grafalian battle cruiser and bigger than a mote in a Zoltaxian’s eye.”

  3. Sulayman says:

    I got another that didn’t make the list.

  4. Almir Sulejmanovic says:

    I got one in Swedish “En LED-tråd låter som en bra idé. Du skulle kunna sy en lysande fodral till mig” meaning roughly, a clue sounds like a good idea. You could saw me a flashy casing. Worth noting is that first 3 letters in ledtråd are in capital letters, may suggest LED, but I may be wrong.

  5. Richard Ludwig says:

    It would have been funnier if Siri said “I was busy reminding 3 million people to call your mom!”

  6. Angela Tyson says:

    This is what I got

  7. Sideways AMG GT S says:

    Similar to the mom one, but I got another one.
