The Clock Application

The unit’s built-in clock makes it possible not only to know
the correct time and date in your area, but also to know the
time in other cities or any region around the world. The
Clock is used as the reference time by the Calendar,
Schedule, and To Do applications. In addition to these
features, daylight saving time (DST) can be enabled for any
city you designate, for those countries that use an annual
Daylight Saving Time adjustment.

As an aid to international business and travel, the
Organizer is set to display the time in any other city you
choose (called the World City) as well as your own city (the
Local City). In addition, the Organizer comes with a pre-
defined list of countries and cities. If the city you want is not
in the pre-defined list, you can add your own User-defined
city by specifying the city name, country and time relative to
GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) (see p.130).

To view the Clock, simply press
