Want more sleep? Get an iPhone!

Makes me wonder where the iPhone is pulling their time information from. If the phone sync's with the carrier and the carrier is local and the alarm app uses the phone's time, how is it still an hour off?

Also, DST ended Oct 31st in Europe, ends Nov 7th in the U.S. and Standard time goes into effect with the clocks being set BACK an hour, this would effectively have unadjusted clocks one hour ahead. That should put them at work an hour early. I'm confused.
