I think this is less a Siri device and more a home-TV device.
My understanding is that this device includes a screen. Right now I could use a 17" 16:9 iPad with a stand and maybe an optional detachable keyboard, as I find I'm using my 12" iPad Pro more and more for TV/movie viewing. I could use something like that for a bedroom nightstand.
I don't think Siri will be the focus of this product. I hope not, at least, because it definitely isn't the top assistant. Apple's strength is it's device media capabilities, and they should exploit that instead.
