MOBILE phone and computer time settings have been thrown into chaos by the extension of daylight saving in the east – and the confusion is set to continue with the country now divided into four time zones.

Phones, computer programs and even Telstra's speaking clock service reverted to standard time a week too early in some eastern states yesterday, after the end of daylight savings was extended to 3am on April 6.

But someone didn't tell the phones, some of which had a mind of their own.

Telstra spokesman Peter Taylor said new-generation mobile phones and BlackBerry handsets were affected most because they had software that could override their systems.

"Technology and time went haywire at 2am yesterday, so many people slept in... Thankfully, it was a Sunday," Mr Taylor said.

Some computers and electronic clocks also switched back to standard time too early, and some companies have issued software updates for Microsoft Outlook to correct premature changes to its meeting calendar service.

Western Australia reverted to standard time yesterday, while NSW, the ACT, Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania are still in daylight saving time.

Queensland, which has refused to adopt daylight saving, is an hour behind the other eastern states and the Northern Territory is an hour and a half behind.

In the US last year a similar change in daylight saving schedules meant hundreds of millions were spent on adjusting computer systems.

Although the east coast may be affected, the problem shouldn't affect Western Australia, which is in the middle of a three-year trial of daylight saving, because its systems are already in place.

Premier Alan Carpenter has conceded, while personally not a fan of daylight saving, that it does benefits the state, particularly the business sector.

WA has rejected daylight saving at several referendums and the three-year trial is an attempt to end the debate.

For those who are just too lazy to walk through today’s ultra large malls, there is always the Easy Traveler that allows the elderly and those who have difficulty walking to get around in a more comfortable manner. Assembling it is pretty much a no-brainer, requiring just three short steps to do so. With a maximum speed of 4mph, you won’t be breaking land speed records with this anytime soon, but it sure beats walking the whole day! Features include a rear view mirror, a high visibility flag, and a scooter cover. The battery can be charged off and on the scooter for greater convenience. The Easy Traveler is up for grabs for $1,300 each.

If you ever wanted to do an inventory of all your cool (and not so cool) stuff then the Intelliscanner is just what you’ve been waiting for, your own personal barcode scanner.

With the Intelliscanner, you read the barcodes on the items you want to list and monitor and then upload them to your PC. The system comes with software for managing wine collections, home inventory, groceries, books, cds, dvds, comic books, etc. I can see it being useful for DVDs and things but do you really need to know how many cans of beans you’ve got in the cupboard (frozen pizzas maybe).
