I don't think so. When I got mine it had 1.20 I think, since then I've gone
through 130, 140, 150 and now I've got 1.51. I think date and time feedback was
ropy in 1.20, neither was the daisy fit for purpose, but certainly it's been as
good as it is now for the last couple of firmware versions.

telling you how to set the clock, by using the up, down, left and right
buttons. Use the left and right buttons to navigate between columns, year,
month, date, hour and minutes, and the up and down buttons to get to the
desired date. Each time you arrow up or down the current setting will be spoken.
