Nice. You can invoke the separate apps inside BusyBox with:
/sdcard/busybox hwclock
Rember that the SD card will automount on access (which triggers write); so
don't call hwclock to often. Or even better, copy the binary to / on boot via
the local script
/boot/settings/rc.local

Thanks! :)
B.T.W. In next release the clock time zone will autoset at boot. Might be
interesting for a traveling device.
