Owners of those brand new iPhone 4S’s have been reporting problems. A glitch was leading to rapid battery drain for some users; while Siri, the much-touted “virtual personal assistant,” went silent for others. The short battery life problem first came to the fore late last week, with some users reporting a battery life of just about 12 hours. This week, Apple confirmed: “A small number of customers have reported lower than expected battery life on iOS 5 devices. We have found a few bugs that are affecting battery life and we will release a software update to address those in a few weeks.” Late on Thursday, VentureBeat reported that some users who had been having Siri problems were finding their virtual assistant back in action, all of a sudden. Asked where she was all day, Siri replied with a series of day spas and hair salons.
