WM6 Calendar issue

[Guest guandalf]

This is probably the most annoying feature on Windows Mobile which I hope would be solved with WM6. I live in Florida and went on a business meeting to Colorado with my Treo 750. I loved how the network time updated my clock, but why were all my meetings moved 2 hours too?!?! When I set up the meeting for 3 pm... I meant 3 pm.. I am not sure why WM6 seems to "think" that since I am in a different time zone my meetings need to be changed. Could it be that Microsoft overlooked something so trivial? Is there a way around this annoying problem? I would hate to calculate time zone differences everytime I need to schedule a meeting in states that have different time zones to mine. Any help would be appreciated! :(

Depends how you look at it.

When I move time zone, I WANT all my events to shift, because I configure them in the UK time zone. I'd hate to have, say, a football game in my calendar move just because I moved time zone.

If I have to schedule a meeting in the US for example, I book it in using Outlook 2007 where you can specify which time zone the meeting is in. Problem solved.

But annoying if you reguarly change timezones (more of an issue in the US i'd imagine). Like Paul says, i there's arguements for both ways (and we've had those arguements in the past :(). MS have made it a little finickety to sort out though...

Can, open, worms, everywhere... :)

I think Pocket Informant 8 gives you the option to specify the timezone-interchange-retiming issue :)
