CortanaApparently there is now a video of the new voice assistant for Windows Phone in action, the new assistant named Cortana; after the virtual assistant in the Halo series is said to be much more capable and to rival Siri or Google Now. The video below shows the assistant overlayed on what appears to be Here maps (or Transit), alerting the user that the next train is leaving soon, and giving him the option to ask for a reminder to leave.

Update: According to Tom Warren this is FAKE, and I’m inclined to follow what Tom says.

Hopefully Cortana will actually work properly and not just be another poorly implemented feature, but until we see for ourselves what do you guys think? Real or fake? And what do you think of the implementation.
