Time Zone Suport in iCalandar

I am a frequent traveller and trips transit more than one time zone.


When I use my iPad to setup an appointment/event, I am offered a start time and an end time...but only one choice of time zones. I need to be able to set the time zone for each time...start and end...independent of the other.


Doe Apple recognize this need? Will the iPhone/iPad calendar be upgraded to add this capablity?

Wow - no answer. I've been dealing with this for months and can't believe Apple doesn't care about people who travel with their products!


The sad part is that both the Mac and iPhone support this feature in their calendar database format but Apple just hasn't bothered to allow users to set it!


I found workarounds for Mac and iPhone. BusyCal for OSX lets you specify different start and end timezones as does Pocket Informant on for iOS.


Why hasn't Apple fixed this yet? I hoped 10.8 would finally do it but apparently not 😟
