A bug in the iPhone's operating system resulted in alarms going off an hour late as Europe changed to daylight saving time.
The iPhone's regular clock can handle the change and automatically steps back one hour. However, the alarm goes off one hour late. People who set the alarm for 7 a.m. found that it actually sounds off at 8 a.m.
Overal iPhone users seem to have managed fine, with lots of short showers and quick breakfasts: "The iPhone gave me a nice sleep-in. Luckily a friend called me four minutes before the lecture started, and I managed to get there reasonably on time, said one user on MacWorld Sweden's site.
Note EU-Digest: this should teach those of us who don't already know not to blindly trust anything or anyone on this earth, be it a corporation, a piece of equipment, a politician, the media, or any government. Always stay alert, be vigilant and keep asking questions.
