My flatmates telstra phone automatically switched to daylight time last weekend even though we live in Queensland, when he asked me was I getting up to get ready to go and see the airshow. I have a battery operated desk clock so who needs this great new technology.

I think it is Telstra that needs the updates installed. On my phone when I try to change the location Sydney, Melbourne and Hobart are all GMT + 10.0 which of course is wrong.

I will visit the Telstra shop downstairs later today and see if they have some answers.
