(comment)	It can also be read しゅとう, as seen in this video:

goo.ne.jp kokugo jiten also agrees. (it doesn't even provide the てがたな reading. However MS IME does have that one, so make of that what you will.) So, at least しゅとう should be added.

(comment)	I didn't understand this expression and thought it was a bit strange when listening to http://www.njuku.com/?p=29 so I looked it up in WWWJDIC too.
Now, that page gives the meaning as "contrary to expectation", which is a negation of the meaning given in WWWJDIC: "as expected; as we thought". I checked with my Japanese coworkers and they say the meaning in WWWJDIC is incorrect and the meaning on njuku.com is correct.
