Apple Prepares To Pull Evi From App Store. Did It Slap-Down Siri?

Last month we reported on the launch of Evi, a new iPhone (iTunes link) and Android app (link) which was very Siri-like in its capabilities. Maybe it was too good at acting like Siri? Yes, Evi can't do Siri's trick of adding things to your iPhone Calendar or hook into reminders. But, ask "How do I make apple pie?" and Evi provides a list of recipes with web links. Siri can't give you a direct answer and just asks whether you want to search the web. Perhaps it's the fact that Evi is pretty damn good, and doesn't look a million miles away from Siri, that Apple has told True Knowledge that it is going to pull Evi from the App Store. Wait, what?
