I think this is what is causing a problem where I can't open Overdrive epubs that are still within the checkout period.
Any ideas?
Thanks
The last date is the date shortly after a power off/reset (Normal for this device). Do Not turn the PEz off.

Other things seem to reset the Clock (power NOT shut down), I just have not found out what )

A battery backed "Real Time Clock" has been standard on computers since the first "IBM AT" (The PC and XT were like the PEz, you set them at power on or bought a 3rd party card that was read by the autoexec.bat file and used to set the PC time and date.)
Since the clock is required for some EPUB reading, it would have been nice if the clock setting was not fragile.
