That's OK, I'll take your word for it!

It's just sometimes, they seem so insistent on forcing ifp-only down your 
throat it's hard-to-believe you can actually get around it.

Yes, even the 6900!

I have the 6800 currently, had the 6700 before that.  The screen shown 
in the photo is the HTC home screen, it will show a quite large 24 hour 
clock if you set your preferences to 24 hour time.  The AM/PM indicator 
goes away as well.  I have the same home screen on my 6800, I can take a 
screenshot for you if you'd like.
