Take a look at this blog post: <http://www.tuaw.com/2012/09/14/what-can-you-say-to-siri-in-ios-6/>
I bought the book too. I live under the flight pattern for DFW airport and am enjoying the capability mentioned in the book, to show me what planes are overhead.
I have a couple of contacts with last name of "Wolfram" so I have to say, "Ask Wolfram Alpha what planes are overhead." If I leave out the "Alpha" I get my contacts. Takes a little playing with it, sometimes, but I think it's amazing what you can get out of Siri (and Wolfram Alpha). [question for the grammar experts, should I have put the period inside the parenthesis? I just noticed that it looks strange to me.]
