First of all:

My comment does not necessarily reflect the opinion of all individuals that gather here on HN.

Therefore:

Yes, i was a critic of Siri when it first came out and also of Apple Maps.

Additionally:

You might, and things like this happen with written text, over emphasize my statement. It was by no means meant as harsh criticism, but you can't deny the fact that it shouldn't have happened and that was basically all i said.

-) why do updates not appear for some users (it was not just him)

-) when it's being marketed with running Office and then comes along in this condition, then it certainly isn't perfect

AND:

When also keeping in mind, that:

-) the Hardware seems to be astonishing

-) Design, Input methods, everything gets positive reviews

-) this a big milestone for Microsoft, showing off not only a Microsoft branded device (not just some device where their OS is running), but also a completely new direction in which they are heading

then this was not at all a perfect start, no matter how you put it.
