How to set first day of the week?

I'm trying to set up my iPad calendar so that my week view starts on Monday. My calendar on my desktop & MoblieMe starts the week on Monday which is what I want but my iPad starts on Sunday (even though it has been synced with my desktop & MoblieMe too). Please help! Thanks!

iPad, iOS 4

Probably changes on how the date, the time and telephone numbers are displayed. You can find a "Region Format Example" on the International page, so you an check different settings.
Oh, and it will change the description on the calendar icon: even with language set to English, the region format set to Germany shows today "Montag" instead of "Monday". So, I guess you should choose a region format that's close to your own language.

Actually, I tried both UK and Australia, and Sunday was still the first day of the week.


HOWEVER!!!


Woohoo!! American Samoa works, and doesn't seem to change any other formats (although admittedly I have not made an exhaustive search - just checked the International Example thing recommended by Matthias suggested.


Matthias, thanks very much by the way!! 🙂
