A team known as i4Siri has been working for quite some time in an attempt to bring a functioning and reliable answer to this problem, and looking at their most recent blog post, it seems that they believe they have the solution, making the i4Siri servers available to the public, and it does not require you to have a registered iPhone 4S.
After months of data analysis, testing and modifying based on findings, the servers are now believed to be stable and are being offered to the masses for free. Limitations on the API access will be placed, but the team are planning on adding extensive management tools which let users see things like usage stats, most used sayings and a number of other advanced options.
Note: Obviously, you have to firstly, jailbreak your device on os5. There are tons of tutorials out there for jailbreaking.
Step 1: Open up Cydia and install the ‘Spire‘ tweak, developed by chpwn.
Step 2: After installation, open up the device Settings application and head to ‘General >> Siri‘ and make sure the toggle is set to ‘On‘.
Step 3: Head back to the root of the Settings menu and select ‘Spire‘.
Step 4: In the Spire settings menu, populate the proxy URL field with ‘https://i4sirifree.mooo.com/’.
Step 5: Open up Mobile Safari and head to ‘http://i4siri.com/installcertificate.html‘
Step 6: Install the certificate. Activate Siri and make a request.
