    "as" ---> "A's" autocorrect nightmare

    Ok, I had this on my V1 and my new 3GS... I think it's a 3.0 issue. I've restored as a new phone and reset my keyboard dictionary and my phone still relentlessly autocorrects "as" to "A's".... I can't seem to get it out of there no matter what I try.

    Is anyone else getting this and have they found a solution? Because it's driving me absolutely insane.

    You don't realize how often you type "as"....

    Most words you can add to the dictionary by refusing the autocorrection like 6 times in a row or something, but I can't make that happen for this word. I've tried in notes, email, safari. It's stuck, and yes, it's a bit of a nightmare.

    If it has happened with your V1 aswel, i would guess it has something to do with your personal settings. Does your wifes do this? If not, sync your account to her 3gs and see if it does it. If it does it, it must be something in your Itunes sync
