NIST Synchronicity is a Preferences module for synchronizing the
computer's internal clock with the National Institute of Standards
and Technology's cesium clocks via a modem. The service is free,
save the long distance charges incurred during the call.

Synchronicity's functionality can be invoked through the Preferences
application, a cron script or the command line. In demo mode
Synchronicity does not allow command line or cron script use.

NEW for 2.1:
Synchronization of the computer's clock can be immediate, or the
clock may be slowly corrected without ever 'skipping' time. Time
correction adjustment is useful in cases where changing the computer's
time may cause important automated tasks to be skipped or missed.
Synchronicity also offers a limited control over NTP synchronization.

Synchronicity retails for $30 per license. To order please contact
SmartSoft at (800) 424-8864.
