I heard the show a while back where there were several words described for the errors made on pdas and cell phones when the autocomplete feature completes words in interesting ways.
I can't find any reference to that show. Anyone?

It's the show with the title "A Yankee Dime", dated October 9th of this year.

Thanks! That's it.
I was searching for auto complete, got no hits since ts described as predictive text in the show.
