NetClock is available at PalmGear (http://www.palmgear.com/software/showsoftware.cfm?prodID=40995).

It's freeware, supports OS5 & Hi-Res color, and you can sync via Wi-Fi.

WorldMate gets my vote too since it has The Weather Channel too.

I don't travel at all except on vacation (and usually stay in the US). Would WorldMate still be useful to me?

I use to travel alot but not any more (change job), however, I still use WorldMate daily for Atomic clock and The Weather Channel (TWC).

It is nice to have the Clie's and PC's clock in sync and displaying correct everyday. Before then I use to check the time weekly and made correction manually.

Having TWC is handy to view the local weather for the week handy at the palm of your hand. If it is going to rain tomorrow, I might not bother washing my car today. Also people like to talk about the weather, so when I talk with someone on the phone in another state or country, I can make a quick check on the local weather on the end of the line and symphatize on how cold it is up north now.

Another thing if I want to purchase online a product from another country and want to convert the price to US dollar, the currencies is pretty handy to have.

I use TimeCopy (http://www.palmgear.com/software/showsoftware.cfm?prodID=20154) to sync the time between my PC and Clie. It's free and does the job.

There are many options to sync the PC clock to an atomic clock. I found a couple ones on CNet.

TimeCopy does exactly what I need it to do, nothing more, nothing less.

Very cool! Tried TimeCopy and got a program from CNET called Atomic Clock Sync for free. I now can have my PC checked for accuracy once a day while online and then adjust my clie time whenever I sync. Thanks for the info. Now if I could only sync my clie with my watch...:D

I get my local weather a few times a day with iSilo . . . don't guess I need WorldMate, really.  Does look like a neat program though...

I use Isilo for news and weather also YellowRose. So now that I have this combo I will always have the correct time on my Clie. I use Megaclock for my main clock and alarms app.

Worldmate is great for someone that travels a lot overseas, with weather, currency exchange rates, clothing size conversions, but I bought is when they had a promotion at $7.95. As much as I like it, I have a hard time recommending it at $24.95. There are other, less expensive, options for most of it's capabilities.

I use a program from the National Institute of Standards and Technology to update the time on my PC. Then during the hot sync process, my Clie's time is updated to ;match the PC time.

The NIST Time program can be found at http://tf.nist.gov/service/its.htm

Plus--it's free!
