Dear iPhone

Dear iPhone
Firstly, I would like to thank you for your many months of trusty morning alarm/wake-up service. I rely on you to disturb me from my slumber, and keep disturbing me as I lazily press snooze, until I actually manage to get out of bed and put my feet on the floor. Without you I would be late more often than not. However, this morning I think can both agree that there was a repeat of an unpleasant incident regarding the end of daylight saving where somehow you took it upon yourself to wake me an hour earlier than usual. I thought we had solved this problem but upon checking your settings you seemed to have strayed off Brisbane time. So as “Piano Riff” blared into my shadowy bedroom, I stirred from a dream thinking…”goodness the mornings are closing in”…but no! It was only 5:40am, even though your time said it was 6:40am. So in the nearly dark I pressed a few buttons and reset you back to Queensland time. And then I lay awake for an hour, trying to go back to sleep. It didn’t work.
Don’t do it again
Kind regards
Wendy

    Why can’t the behind The Scene button pushers get it right?? It plays havoc with the EPGs too. You should be least affected, you don;t even have DLS!!

  2. I think there was an upsurge in the sales of old fashioned alarm clocks today by disgruntled i-phone owners who were either woken an hour early, or an hour late but not on time!
    Isn’t technology fun!

    I love technology most of the time…but I wasn’t that fond of it early this morning 🙂

    The iPhone is less likely to wake you up than a Labrador puppy. I am on new Standard time, and she is still ‘set’ to DLS, so she wakes us up and hour early.

    a puppy sounds like more fun than an iPhone 🙂
