[NTLK] Einstein version 2022.4.17 ready for download, your input needed

[Dan]

I finally got around to playing with this (finally found my ROM image) and two things I have noticed.

1. I can't seem to set the time properly.  It is always a hour early, and I can't manually change it.  I try and it just ignores any changes.

2. When I set a reminder alarm in dates, it never goes off until the newton is reset, then it pops up.  Even other apps/packages that have an alarm setting option don't pop up either until you reboot/reset it.

Anyone else seeing this?

The dialog box still contains the Y10k patch which is no longer needed, links to all the network enabler resources, and a very short list of software that I personally like (ViewFrame).
