VIKI Personal Voice Assistant app is coming on Blackberry 10

I just read that VIKI Personal Voice Assistant app is coming on Blackberry 10 at the launch.
It is being brought by Agrima Infotech, the makers of India’s first humanoid controlled robot.
See the link below to see what all it can do, looks like SIRI on iOS.

Their official site below, current just shows countdown, looks cool though.

I'd have to say it looks better than siri on iOS for two reasons :
1)- It's not siri.
2)- It's not on iOS...
It's on BlackBerry 10!!!!!!!!!!

If its not as good as Siri or Google Now, then meh. Well I find voice assistants pointless anyway, so meh anyway.

when i saw the name VIKI it automatically reminded me of this....

It's good to see more apps coming to BB10. I hope VIKI is better than SIRI, though I wander how many people actually use SIRI (or any kind of voice control app). Any how VIKI will be a good marketing argument for BB10.
BTW someone already created a thread about it, but it doesn't have a lot of information.

Not just for the heck of it, but if it works well (I can't comment on viki, but the native voice control app on BB10 seems to) then it will be very handy while driving.. I'll finally be able to send a txt while cruising down the hwy on my motorcycle without people looking at me like I'm crazy..
