I just noticed this on my iPhone yesterday. Auto-Correction with typing is great, but there's some things it hasn't been auto-correcting when I really expected that it should, and has been where I didn't expect that it would.

Here's a few examples - what came out (what it should have been). More to come once I notice them.
  • comfused / confised (confused)
  • dlaymate / flaymate (flatmate)
  • momth (month)
  • Reading (reading)
  • roght (right)
  • somehiw (somehow)
  • Sumdat (Sunday)
  • tjat (that)
Anyone else noticed their iPhone doing anything like this?

I've got a mate who lives near Reading. My phone did that to me too while I wrote to someone that I was *reading* on the train on the way there

I've had some odd ones too - will post them here for you as I remember/get them.

Thanks. I have a friend in my address book called Reading, so that probably explains that one. But the rest still have me confused/frustrated. @_@
