Telcel Apple Iphone Siri question

Does anyone have an Iphone 4S through Telcel?
If so, does it have Siri and if it does, is English language an option?

The Home button on my Telcel Iphone 4 is no longer working (naturally after one year and three weeks and Apple only warranties the phone for one year) and Telcel does not want to fix it. Telcel's options to me were to replace my phone with another Iphone 4 ($2770 pesos) or replace with an Iphone 4S ($5600 pesos) and signing another two year contract.

Phone must be taken apart, proper tools are needed, and most of all - the person must know exactly what he is doing. I was just in south Florida and found a guy that has a cell phone repair shop. He told me it would cost $30 to fix the "home" button. Unfortunately I did take my phone with me to Florida . But I am headed back to FL at the end of September, so this time I will take my phone with me. I guess that I will have to get by for two months by turning the phone off and on to get to the home screen.

All iphone 4s have Siri, whether they come from Telcel or ATT or anywhere else. English is an option, as Siri only understands 6 spoken languages at this time (part of the beta rollout i think).

Yessir, the speculation is September 12. But, be reminded the 4s was originally expected to debut in the summer(as the previous models all had) but didn't launch until the fall. But if you're having to pay an upgrade fee anyway, and can live with the problem for a while, you might as well wait for the latest and greatest. You can be my beta tester, haha. Let me know when the bugs are out!
