iPod Nano World Clock
If you managed to get your hands on an iPod Nano, you might have browsed through the menus and noticed some new features like a World Clock.The World Clock is easy to use. Just set the clock and you can see the current time in multiple locations all at once. Seemingly trivial but surprisingly helpful for someone who does a lot of international business or traveling.
Our favorite little detail was how the clock faces turn black/white when it is night/day time in a particular city (see image on right). This makes it even easier to digest multiple world time zones with a single glance.
You can also set alarms in various time zones, set the clocks to change at Daylight Saving Time (or not, if you don't observe DST like Arizona residents) and sleep timers in different cities.
The World Clock is (currently) only available on the iPod Nano and Video iPod.

I bet a lot of people will find this extremely useful. I like the fact that you can set day light saving time or not. I live in Arizona and we are all rebels (besides some indians, go figure) and don't change the time. I think it would be weird to add/subtract an hour, guess you'd get used to it pretty fast though.
I dunno about others. But when I put Pacific standard time and 2nd time zone for Asia(Taipei, Hongkong) it is ONE hour off. In another word, it's inaccurate.

There are only a few time zones available to select for my ipod clock & because my time zone isnt one of them any clock i set in the world clocks is out by the diff between my time zone & the one set for my clock. The closest i can get is half an hour fast or slow.

I have my city, Halifax, for the world clock. There is no Atlantic (GMT-0400) option, however, so I (as well I'm sure as a few) stuck with Eastern time, and, damnit, I'm Atlantic!!! lol
Any idea if you can find a way to add additonal Time Zones (for your system settings) on an iPod 5g?
Any help, appreciated, otoolerc AT gmail DOT com

I think its very stupid of Apple Comp. to put world clock on the new video ipod because there are very few time zones optios available. so chances are your time zone might not be there on the ipod and so the whole world clock feature will be useless for you. a world clock with only a few time zones!!! what is this... some kinda joke?!? if you wanna add a feature than add properly otherwise dont add at all!
