And the Siri tweaks just keep rolling in. Lingual is one of the first 3rd party extensions for the awesome AssistantExtensions tweak that we covered earlier. It allows you to translate phrases or text into a variety of languages from the comforts of the Siri interface, and it's awesome for language learners and travelers.
It really is amazing what some developers have been able to do in the short period that the iPhone 4S has been jailbroken, and this one is nothing short of spectacular.

Earlier today we told you about an upcoming tweak that would let you send tweets using Siri. At the time, we didn't know the name of this tweak or when it would be available for download.
It appears that Sireet, as it is called, is now available for download from the MMI repo for free...
It was only a matter of time, but the inevitable has finally happened. Even though you could already use this workaround to send status updates to Twitter using Siri, you can now tweet with Siri courtesy of an upcoming jailbreak tweak.
The yet to be named tweak is making its way around the blogosphere, and should be released to the public in the very near future.
We're pretty impressed by how accurate tweeting with Siri actually is, but that should be expected since Siri is very precise when it comes to dictation.
Check out our hands on video as we tweet with Siri inside...
It finally feels like we're beginning to get into the swing of things as far as jailbreak content goes. We're starting to see a flood of content dedicated to iOS 5, the iPhone 4S, and to a lesser extent, the iPad.
One of the latest iOS 5 tweaks to hit the scene is ColorBanner, a tweak that allows you to customize the background color and font color of your Notification Center Banners...
Not to be confused with the Mission Control that's standard on all OS X Lion builds, MissionControl is a Cydia tweak that adds menu based multitasking to the iPhone.
Using Activator as a means to invoke the menu, MissionControl is a simple alternative for those who want lots of predefined options in an organized menu.
This free tweak contains quick links to Cydia, Twitter, Facebook, Wi-Fi settings, and more...
At iDB we're big proponents of XBMC on the Apple TV, but what's to stop one from doing the same thing on the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch? In a word, nothing.
Inside we'll show you how to get XBMC on your mobile iOS device, and we'll give you a sneak peak at some of its awesome benefits...
Okay, so I'm switching gears a bit here and talking about an app that you can download from the App Store.
Make no mistake, while I love jailbreak apps and tweaks, I also have love for many apps that can be found in the App Store.
The App Store is loaded with myriads of quality apps, and Panic's Prompt is one of them. Prompt is an SSH client, and a perfect alternative to Mobile Terminal for hardcore terminal users.
Did you know It also allows you to browse the root structure of your iDevice's file system if you're jailbroken and have OpenSSH installed?
Last week we saw the release of the iPhone 4S and iPad 2 untethered jailbreak, in what was the biggest week for jailbreak news in quite some time. To celebrate, this week's top jailbreak videos contain an extra heaping-helping of video goodness for you to consume.
Please be sure to share our iPhone, iPad, and iOS video guides by spreading our posts on Twitter and Facebook.
Looking to add a bit more style to Notification Center? If so, then you've come to the right place.
Flowtation is a recently released jailbreak tweak that does just that, adds visual style to the way Notification Center behaves when revealed.
Instead of Notification Center overlapping the current content on your screen, it physically pushes the content out of the way when displayed.
It's not the easiest concept to explain with words, but that's what video is for...
It has barely been a day, and we've already seen a plethora of new jailbreak tweaks to take advantage of Siri in new ways. The latest is SiriToggles, and it looks like it could be one of the most promising thus far.
SiriToggles is like SBSettings for voice. You can literally control most of the vital aspects of your iPhone that you normally adjust on a day-to-day basis. Things like brightness, Wi-Fi, 3G, Bluetooth, and more can all be controlled using Siri commands.
Even better, Siri Toggles allows you to launch apps; and when we say launch apps, we mean every app, jailbreak or otherwise. Folks, you do not want to miss our preview of this jailbreak tweak if you're in possession of an iPhone 4S. This is going to make your lives a whole lot easier...
Didn't we tell you? The floodgates are opening for Siri tweaks now that the iPhone 4S jailbreak is available.
OpenSiri is among the Siri tweak freshman class, and it allows you to launch stock Apple apps, plus Facebook and Twitter apps using nothing but your voice.
Check out our hands-on video of OpenSiri in action...
The potential is startling. Once you play with Hands-Free Control in a true Siri environment on the iPhone 4S, it really hits you how much potential jailbreaking adds to Siri. Truly, the sky's the limit here as far as voice recognition and the like are concerned.
Imagine laying in bed with your iPhone half-way across the room. Problem: You forgot to set the alarm. Actually, no problem at all. With Hands-Free Control, Siri is always at your beckoning call...
