It'd be easier to test that situation if I had a second reader I could just factory reset without losing all my current reading progress.
Target has a great 90 day return policy... since you are doing some work that benefits the whole Sony Reader community.

Would it be useful to create/store the timezone offset in Preferences > Tweak so that you can easily manipulate it?
