Just be aware that for this to be helpful after a hard
reset, the program must be installed on a memory card.
Downloading and installing it will probably take longer
than setting the date the standard way.
NewtTest, by the way, will also allow you to set time
and date more elegantly than the Newton OS. But it must
also be installed on a memory card if it is supposed to
be useful after a hard reset.
NewtTest is available in the software section of the
site in the signature.
