Sorry, but just because it is software does not mean it costs "practically
nothing" to add.

BTW, there are a few of these on the (U.S.) market that use radio
frequencies to automatically adjust to the U.S. Atomic Clock. As I recall,
the wrist watch was about $900, the analog wall clock about $200 and the
digital clock/radio about $100 (all U.S. dollars).
