Maybe your PC Suite SW is set to synchronize the time with PC. Its an option that is selected by default. Bugged me for a whole week when i first got my phone as the time would change everyday.

Tell me about it....it's always either to early or too late to remind me about my daily spankings...


I should have brought it in England, it would have probably been made better there....

all you guys should observe time correctly. Check your time and synchronize it with your watch and observe. I've tried it I think the time of the p800 slows down or gets fast whenever you sync it with the computer. But if your not in sync with the computer the p800 time works perfect!
I think that should answer all your questions.

The P800 Copies the Computers Time upon synchronization... thats why it changes to your computers time so make sure your computers time is correct so it does not affect your p800's time...

I can't say whether my P800 on it's own can keep time well, but since my computer syncs it's time with a government time server, and my P800 syncs with my computer it's always spot on.

Good thinking, I have mine running from an atomic clock link I found on the web and then my P800 syncs to that, cant get anymore precise than that
