That's how it worked on the Sony readers, the displayed time changed when you flipped a page. Unless you have superman eyesight and use minuscule text, that was never a problem since you'll finish a page in under a minute anyway. And that was always good enough for me. I thought it had to be that way because of how e-ink screens work.

Edit: It does work, although the placement of it isn't in an ideal spot since it will cut off the tops of the text in that position. The best place for it is how it was on the Sony readers, in the lower right corner on the same line as the page numbers. It doesn't cut into any text in that position. The day/date isn't really necessary either, it's just for a non-intrusive way to have the time show.
