iPod time jumping issue - iOS 4

My iPod Touch keeps changing time settings randomly after I've performed upgrade to iOS 4. This seems to appear anytime when iPod connects to some Wi-Fi, and even when it just gets the list of available WiFi networks even if there are no any public one available. It also happens on location related services starts and on Sync with the laptop.

I have correct GMT time zone specified on the laptop and tried to specify similar one at iPod. This does not help. It keeps on jumping...

The next problem is that iPod actually has not listed GMT-based time-zones! One needs to specify some city in your zone to get it 'matched'. If that would be possible one could shift the time by corresponding 'GMT+5' or 'GMT-8' setting, but this is not the case with an iPod iOS 4. So, I tried to find some city listed in the Settings, to match the zone with 'Syncronized' one, but I failed.

The only thing which temporary works is switching OFF the Wi-Fi feature. This is odd, but this is the only thing you can do to be sure, that your morning-alarm will ring on time you set it up and not a few hours late...

Does anyone has better solution yet?
