Have any of you had ever had an accelaration problem right after turning the car on?

It's like as soon as you press on the peddle the car struggles to move then the car just stalls...but I've got an auto....

happens very rarely but still it's baffling

Are the revs lower than usual when the car is idle as well?

I had an air leak from one of the tubes coming from the engine that caused a similar problem to yours, acceleration was poor, and stalling.

I left it for a while until there were times that I'd change gear to go round a corner so the revs would drop, and the car would stall as I'm turning, steering wheel and brakes locked up halfway into the turn and I'd just coast in one direction, happened twice, first time I ended up on a pavement, second I coasted into a lane of oncoming traffic, luckily there was nothing close at the time.
