WebOS HomeBrew Apps List at Pre|Central

The Palm PRE is quite popular but for quite some time there was no support for paid WebOS applications on the WebOS Apps Store. This has caused the HomeBrew crew to find their own solution. The most popular solution I know of is the HomeBrew Apps on-line at Pre|Central:

Daylight Savings Time - Palm Update

Did you remember to set your clocks back this morning for the end Daylight Savings Time? Everywhere in Canada and the US (that observes DST) changed their clocks back this weekend. The real question is: Did you Palm device know about the new DST change?

If your Palm device didn't know about the new DST timings, then you want to visit Palm and get the DST update. Back in Feb 2007 I published an article explaining the 5 W's about this update:

Palm Releases Daylight Saving Time Updates
New Daylight Saving Time Changes
Beginning this year (2007) Daylight Saving Time (DST) for most of the U.S. and all of Canada, starts on the second Sunday in March (11 March 2007), and changes back to standard time on the first Sunday in November (4 November 2007). These dates are NEW and a change from the current start/end date that is built into some Palm devices.

Palm devices, both smartphones and handhelds, need to be updated so that they reflect the correct time when the new DST changes take effect. Without the Daylight Saving Time Updates, calendar events and email messages will indicate an hour off the actual time in locations that observe DST.

Things get really interesting if your Palm knows about the new dates, but your OS or application doesn't. For your information, the only two Microsoft OS's with the proper Daylight Saving Time corrections are Windows XP Service Pack 2, and Windows Vista. None of the other versions know of the DST change, nor will Microsoft be making a fix available.

Affected Palm devices: (every Palm that knows about DST)
