Adjust Time Zone setting's by SMS or email?
I travel extensively and would love to use Sandy for SMS reminder's, but need a way to easily adjust Sandy's timezone setting's when I can't get an internet connection. An email or SMS command like "Sandy, set my time zone to EST" would be great.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?Hi!
We actually have that in the roadmap -- the ability to change most of your settings by emailing Sandy.
In fact, we have had it on our list for a while to automatically adjust if Sandy notices that your timezone has changed (the one your email program adds to your outgoing mail). But then we found -- anecdotally at least -- that people don't tend to change their computer's time-zone when they travel. Do you?
I'm sorry the settings by email feature isn't available to help you on any trip you might currently be on, but they're definitely on the list.

Inappropriate?Thanks for the quick reply Rael,
I'm glad to hear it's on the roadmap....I THINK you're on the right track. If Sandy had a preference toggle for, "Adjust my timezone from my most recent correspondence" my problem would be solved.
Regarding laptop's....in order to travel lightly I've ditched it and use SMS almost exclusively.
I’m excited

Inappropriate?Hi DC,
So when you change time-zones, does your SMS device of choice switch too? I've seen it both ways.

Inappropriate?Yup...my SMS and cellphone time switches too... Otherwise I'd never know exactly what timezone I was in...LOL

Inappropriate?And it would be really, really nifty if you could parse the zone out of the reminder, so that
Remind me at 8am PST
would work. In my travels, the problem is that the zone I'm in and the zone I will be in and want the reminder in might differ.
