 My Nokia phone is GSM and it can pull the current time from the
 network just fine.  When I turn it on it asks me for the current
 date and time, I just close that dialog and after a few seconds
 it updates the date/time to the current values on its own, so I
 assume GSM provides a mechanism to do this (likely it's an
 option that the network operator has to enable).  I've seen this
 work on several different networks and different countries.
