I just checked mine and clock is stuck at 31/12 23:48 and just keeps cycling back to that as I navigate across the XMB.
Oh well Wii Sports Resort it is tonight!

Wish I'd kept my vintage Gameboy now.....atleast that was reliable
I had the clock problem too Simon. Fingers crossed it'll be sorted soon

Follow the one of the many dismantle guides:
Playstation 3 Disassembly Tutorial
Until you get to the part about removing Mainboard and rear sockets in one go:

Lift out MB and turn over.
See Battery... unplug it for 5 mins.... give the big dirty fan a clean.
Put it back together. RTC bug fixed.

Just Sony programming it to think that 2010 was a leap year
The date roll over fixed the issue - although some will have to update their clocks via the console again.

Yes. Most users will just need to update their time/date settings; either manually or via the internet. No need to connect the console to the net if you don't want to, it's not online related.

Just manually update the date/time. A permenant fix should be coming out in a future firmware update, but the circumstances that caused this won't occur for another 4 years, so no rush!
