It must be a constant frustration to Steve Jobs that journalists and message board commenters alike routinely “misspell” iLife, iTunes, iPod, etc. as Ilife, Itunes, Ipod. Well, in the universe of the iPhone, that vicious cycle will end. Reader Scott notes:
I don’t know if anybody else has noticed this yet, but the spellcheck on iPhone auto corrects the “mis-punctuation” of Apple’s i-products.
For example:Ilife becomes iLife
Itunes becomes iTunes
etc.It gave me a little chuckle to realize Apple edited the dictionary in it’s own favor.
Update: Scott came through with the evidence.
