The Alarm Clock plague that have caused a lot of European employees being late for work is also expected to affect the United States. Apple warns American iPhone users that the same bug that have happened when Europe switched from DST to ST will most likely happen in the US too. Well, the bug fix is not yet here until they release iOS 4.2 which is due "early November". Until that time you just have to set a new alarm since the bug only occurs to repeating alarms.
