    <p>We are targeting Blackberry OS 6 and 7 devices, and are having issues with Javascript and daylight saving time. The behaviour we're seeing for different devices/OS versions is either:</p> <ul> <li>keeps DST setting till end of month (so switches at 1-Nov instead of 28-Oct for Europe this year)</li> <li>uses the same DST setting/time zone offset for the whole year (so after 28-Oct the time zone will be CET (+100), and before 28-OCt it will be CEST (+200), for the <strong>whole</strong> year)</li> </ul> <p>More specific for different devices/versions:</p> <ul> <li>9800 - 6.0.0.246: uses same offset for all dates</li> <li>9780 - 6.0.0.285: uses same offset for all dates</li> <li>9780 - 6.0.0.668: switches at end of month</li> <li>9700 - 6.0.0.668: switches at end of month</li> <li>9360 - 7.0.0.530: switches at end of month</li> </ul> <p>Is anyone aware of these issues and/or a workaround?</p> <p>I have found this Blackberry issue, which explains the 'same offset for all dates' issue, and I think they fixed it in the wrong way: <a href="http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Web-and-WebWorks-Development/Javscript-GMT-Offfset-not-working-in-BB6-0-Devices-Non-Torch/td-p/815883">http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Web-and-WebWorks-Development/Javscript-GMT-Offfset-not-working-in-BB6-0-Devices-Non-Torch/td-p/815883</a></p> <p>We also developed a test page, which reveals the issue by executing some simple document.write(new Date(timestamp)) statements, available here: <a href="http://bit.ly/QhJOIC">http://bit.ly/QhJOIC</a></p>
