That is what to expect.  as of IOS 5 they use NTP but they look at the
clock drift and use NTP at a polling interval just good enough to keep
under 2 seconds of error.  Keeping the clock dead-on requires to  much
battery power.  At least this is what I remember reading when IOS 5
came out.

They "ration" use of NTP to maintain a maximum error
