The program probably has secret messages sent back to Area 51 that
informs the government of my subversive activities. Can't trust any
organization, including the government, that hasn't survived a peer
review of the source code. Oh, they do publish the source code:
ftp://time.nist.gov/pub/daytime/
Well maybe we can trust the government, this time.

Yep. The cell phone time is synced with the cell site, which is
synced with the SONET/SDH network or with GPS. I'm fairly sure it's
accurate. They even sell CMDA clock time servers:

What seems to be my problem is that the Palm part of my PDA phone
apparently does not regularly update the time from the cell phone part
of the PDA. Apparently, there are two clocks in the phone. One for
the cell phone part and one for the PDA part. How they are
synchronized is not obvious (or documented). However, I've never
really investigated the phenomenon and it might be something else.
