As I recall, I never originally 'set' the time in my cellphone - I have always assumed it comes from the network. Do you use a Blackberry? Is it a different situation, perhaps because the Blackberry is more computer-like. Do you 'set' it's time internally? Otherwise, what could explain such a difference!?
Yes, the BB is computer-like. My Blackberry has its time set by the network. But you don't have to use it that way. I actually prefer the Treo over the BB. The new Treo 700 uses Windows Mobile, so you'll have even more apps to use. Although, the Palm apps are quite good.
My Verizon phone gets the time from the network. As soon as I cross a time-zone line, it changes time.
