today screen date format

I'm in my second week of ownership with my Axim x50. Every picture I have seen of the today screen displays the current date as Monday, March 1, 2005 for example. My today screen does not show the day (Monday) it just shows March 1, 2005. How do I correct this? I don't see any options for formatting the date in the Regional Settings screen. Thanks.

Go to Settings - Regional Settings - Date (tab down the botttom right) and make the "long date" = "dddd, d MMMM yyyy"

Cheers
Adrian

Edit: PS. Welcome to Aximsite -> I missed that this was your first post on my first read of the question :)

Adrian, thanks for your response. The long date has been my setting of choice from day one. I thought I could edit this format in the way you indicated, but the system does not allow it, which I think is silly. As I have now discovered, the solution to my problem lay in my Regional Settings choice. I chose English (Canada) when first setting up my Axim and since that is where I live, this made sense to me. It is now set to English (United States) in order to display the full long date I desire. Thanks again for your help.

Guess in Canada you don't need to know the day of the week. :)
