Date/Time stopped in Pocket PC 2003 Phone Edition emulator

[bob]

Hi,

I have just written my first application using the compact framework
and am testing it with the Pocket PC 2003 Phone Edition emulator.

However, I have run into a problem in that the Date and Time of the
emulator phone seem to be set when the emulator starts but then never
change (i.e. they are not up to date).

The upshot is that my C# code which access DateTime.Now always returns
that start-up date and time of the emulator.

Am I missing something obvious?

(I'm testing through VS.Net 2003 using the Pocket PC 2003 Phone
Edition (virtual radio) emulator)

Thanks,
John.

This is regular behaviour for the emulator, you should test time specific
code on a real device.
