Cortana for you Windows Phone?

So Microsoft is going super-geek apparently. For all their previous Windows Phones they haven't had anything like iPhone's Siri or Google's Now service. Lookout though! They have a woman from one of the best selling game series ever created. If you guessed Cortana from Halo, you got it right! It is a step ahead of their competition as well, in the sense that Cortana will learn and adapt with what you usually search for and 'hopefully' provide results closer to what you want! Technology keeps advancing, and we at FixAllCell believe it is cell phones that are leading the need for more.
Just imagine if this is really the case! Then Microsoft would have a mass of people flooding to them from the Android and iPhone groups. If they can get the way Cortana adapts correctly that is. We say this because Cortana could be sending information to the Bing servers about your search habits and yet again, we have another example of our privacy invaded and given to the highest bidder.
Other than privacy being at stake here, we'd like to see your views on this. Is it another government conspiracy, or just a legitimate way to better assist people. If you want to test out the other virtual assistants, stop by our store and we'll let you have a test run of Siri and Google Now.
