EntryElement Text moves left

I have some Entry Elements that sit under a root element. I click on the root element and the underlying and everything is fine. However each time I click on the root and load the entry elements the placeholder text moves left and under the caption text.

This only seems to happen on the device (IOS6) and not the simulator. The effect on my app (BudgetPlanner) is a little unprofessional. (See Screen Shot)

My entry Elements are created like this:

var element = new EntryElement(StringConstants.CurrentLimit.Local () + " ", StringConstants.OverDraft.Local (), "");

thanks Ash....
