@panoslondon1 Not really like Siri at all. A bit like Apple releasing iCloud as an App for Windows, oh, wait...
Many Windows users also have iPhones and Live accounts, so it makes sense to enable them to use Skydrive and keep them away from iCloud.
The same goes for OneNote, why an iPhone / iPad version? Because a lot of corporates have OneNote in use and a lot of execs have iPhones or iPads, so it enables them to work on OneNote whilst on the move, instead of switching to Evernote (or similar) for the iPad and Windows and possibly get rid of their Sharepoint in the process.
Microsoft are a software company and they sell a lot of server and office productivity software. There are alternatives, which are cross platform. In the corporate world, MS have lost ground on the mobile front, so they need to lock-in as many users as they can to their ecosystem and providing SkyDrive, OneNote etc. tempts people to stick with the MS offerings, even on other OS platforms.
