I just checked my iPhone cal and it starts the wk on sun and ends in sat. That feels more right to me than mon thru sun.

That said, see what YOUR users say. Disregard everyone's opinions here--unless we are the user. And even then you'd be better off observing our behavior rather than listening to what we say.

I think the point that is being made here is that it is not second nature. Several folks chimed in that their understanding/convention has always been Mon-Sun. And I add myself to that batch.

Anytime I've seen a calendar (on the web or printed) that starts on Sun it has been jarring.

This seems to be a pretty standard format for all calendars

whether
they're on the web or not which is probably why it's become the
convention. Why try to reinvent something that's already second
nature to users. Do any cultures display their calendars with Monday
as the start?
