If you live in a part of this world that rides the daylight savings (http://www.timeanddate.com/time/aboutdst.html) bandwagon, I hope you checked all of your clocks over the weekend. For some reason my Smartphone and Pocket PC did not automatically update. What's really strange is that they both updated in the spring without problems. :?

On a side note: You may have noticed that the posting times on the server are off by an hour. The software we use for the forums isn't very smart when it comes to DST. If you adjusted your preferences in the spring (http://www.Smartphonethoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5298), you will need to change them back to the correct time zone now. :wink: :D

Thats odd that yours did not update; my mpx220 did update, which was good since it was my only reminder that I got that day about DST :)

My SMT5600 self-updated it's time to reflect the change, I didn't have to do anything, other than acknowledge the message notifying me it had taken place.

Ya, I'm not really sure why they never updated. They both worked fine in the spring. I have double checked the TIme and Date settings and they are listed correctly. :evil:

Ummm, just checked my Orange SPV C500 and it appears to have updated twice!! i.e. it is now showing a time an hour earlier than it ought.

Guess what?

Last night as I was going to bed, I looked at the phone, and it had finally updated!! :? While I'm glad it updated, I'm a little concerned that it took as long as it did to happen.
