I've seen the delete confirmation button not work in some other apps. The other thing that works all the time is to double tap and hold, then slide. Then the confirmation button appears and the item stays deleted once the button is pressed.

Oh well. Thanks for the responses, I completely forgot about he added action item in iOS 6. I'll try that.
