Cortana is awesome for those with vision problems.
What Time is it? She will tell you. What is the temp outside she will tell you.
Ask her if it will snow tomorrow? She will tell you. She talks to you that is the HUGE difference.
Ask her what Halo is? She gets excited in her answer.
I just asked her when the Superbowl is and she told me. I didn't have to look at anything.

So you're talking about the speech portion? I know asking Google Now "How far is Saint Louis?" will get you both miles and estimated time on screen, but you're saying Cortana will speak both? Google Now definitely will answer time and temperature questions. I'll have to try some of the other examples you give, but it's definitely hit and miss what she speaks the answers to. Like I said, the competition is good for the consumer.
