I set the correct time on my Axim and then the next time I turn it on the time is hours off - although my battery has never drained. Anyone else have this problem?

Every time you sync, the clock gets synced with the desktop. Is it possible the desktop clock is off? Do you have the right timezone set on both? What gets synced is GMT, so if the timezone is off on either, it will be wrong when synced.

That's probably it - I didn't realize that active sync set the PDA's clock. I'll have to check that out the next time I fire up the laptop I use to sync the PDA.

Thanks

Which OS is your laptop using? If it's XP, you can auto adjust the time to synch with time.nist.gov if you double click on the clock and select internet time, then update now (of course you must by connected to the internet for it to work).
Is that an Axim in your pocket or are you happy to see me? I knew it was an Axim!

Yeah, Great idea. Thanx.
You know, life seems to go so smoothly that you think nothing can go wrong and you're on top of the world......and then they send your SAT scores!!!!
