One or more Calendar alarms missed due to time change

Now this is wierd. Is it just me? Since the clocks changed a month or so agao, I get this every couple of days when switching to my Calendar. No apparent rhyme nor reason for it and there's nothing wrong with the time setting in the N70. And I'm not fiddling with anything to do with time.

Is it just a firmware bug? Anybody else? My firmware is 3.0546.2.3.

No issues here, F/W: V2.0537.1.7

*EDIT* Typical hehe, I just started me calendar to check and I've just got that message you mentioned for the very first time. 🙄 Doesn't seem to affect correct ringing of alarms though. I had a birthday reminder set for May 3rd and the alarm sounded two weeks prior just as I had set.

You might find this thread at Nokia interesting though:

Thanks, but I'm not sure that's relevant here... my gut feel is that it's a simple bug. I've done all the usual 'format and rebuild' things, too....

Me too. On N70 and N90. I think you're right - a bug. But I can't seem to replicate the behaviour purposely. It just happens sometimes.
