Again, Windows Mobile and you can set EVERYTHING. :) It's those Motorola (or any Symbian) phones especially that you have to watch out for.

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.
