I love the lazy web, DST fix for Windows Mobile

Isn't it great when you blog about a problem and some one else does the work to create a solution? This is referred to as the Lazy Web and I love it.

Get your Windows Mobile DST fix here.

Hey! Thanks for linking to my article. I hope the fix is useful to you. I also have another article wth links to most major venders' DST fixes here: http://www.edgeblog.net/2007/daylight-saving-time-the-year-2007-problem/

still doesn't fix the fact that verizon doesn't send a DST flag over their network time, rendering it useless for PDA phones. half the year my phone can't tell what timezone i'm in because its 1 hour off....

One of my readers determined that after you apply the patch, you must manually change your timezone to something else, and then change it back. This forces the phone to re-read the registry. I confirmed this and tested it successfully. If you have used my patch, please change your timezone.

Thanks,
