Basically as the title says, I have the modified firmware loaded onto my PRS-505, which gives me a (potentially) useful means of telling the time.

Whenever I connect my reader to my PC (Windows Vista 32-bit) the clock updates itself. The problem is that when it updates the clock, it is ALWAYS updated so that it is exactly 1 hour AHEAD of local time. Eg: if my PC clock is 1:02pm, the PRS-505 clock is 2:02pm.
Now obviously I can go and manually change the clock on my PRS, but this only lasts untill the next time I connect the reader to my PC...

Does anyone know if there is anything I can do to get the correct time on my reader when it's connected to the PC?

Thanks

(I know it's not the end of the world.. but it's the sort of thing that bugs the hell out of me...)
