Cell tower could be it, if that's off, that would explain it. I'll find out next time I'm going a few miles away.

Thanks
It should not be the cell tower.
Those systems, like TV networks, should be locked to a national time standard.

Think of it - with your local cell tower 10 minutes off - -
Somebody starts a call there, wanders around, ends at a cell tower that is correct: Whoot, a telephone call billed for ten minutes longer than actual duration.
Nope. Those towers need to be locked to a national standard.

But at the same time - to affect three devices -
it must be something external to the devices that is in common.

If the Kindles are jail broken, you could add-in a 'set data and time' menu item.
That will set both the date and time from your national time standard servers.

It has been a long time since I wrote it but twobob had a DXG at the time and I am pretty sure he tested it.
