I heard something about a change in when daylight savings change is going to happen.This is fairly new (this year),How will our Axims work with this?Will Dell release a patch to resolve this?

what? They changed the day when the clocks will be changed or are you living under a rock?

I'm probaly the one living under a rock? when was this announced? I've never heard of this?

I don't believe it is scheduled to take effect until 2007 but it will require either an update or a registry hack (I assume the dates for the time change are somewhere in the registry, but have never looked for them)

Could someone post a link stating when/why it is changing?

Congress passed an energy bill that included extending Daylight Saving Time

Hmm. DST...Energy...DST...Energy

I guess President Bush didn't know one from the other then.

They are changing the daylight savings time to significantly reduce energy usage.

And how is this supposed to do anything?

OK,never mind.I have cable internet now and could download 32MB in 5 minutes instead of 2 hours,but Dell will just say,"If you ever want the right time on your Axim again,buy an X52v(provided they start making X52's next year)They won't upgrade X30 users to WM5,they won't upgrade us to DST either."

Just download and use SynchroTime from Dennis Grachov, here: http://gsoft.fromru.com I didn't think it worked until I watched the time on my clock change when I clicked Query Time Server, while I was online.

I highly doubt that you will need a ROM reflash.

P.S. Simply plug in your Axim, use Active Sync, and you should be good to go.
