Every version of the iOS 5 Beta that I've used has gone completely insane in the spellcheck department. Wondering if anyone else has these issues since I'm not reading about it online.

It'll suggest something that isn't a word to replace my properly spelled words (as basic as "hat"). It even tried to throw an umlaut over an O! Not in America, buddy!

In addition to English, I have the Russian and Emoji keyboards installed. Haven't tried disabling them yet.


While I'm at it, a minor gripe. The ability to hide the keyboard by flicking down in messages is AMAZING. So useful. It was perfect in Beta 3 but now in beta 4 when you flick down to hide the keyboard, the messages scroll up at the same time. So to get back, your flick down to hide the keyboard is immediately followed by another flick up. Hoping Apple goes back to the Beta 3 version. :(

Same problem here. "IN" is always auto-corrected to "ON".

Pain in the art!
