More info: Sometime in November 2010 I used the stopwatch to time a few things, and a couple days later I realized I accidentally left it running and just went with it. When the iPhone 4 came out, I upgraded and was pleasantly surprised to find the time carried over and kept on counting. If my calculations are correct, it will be able to keep counting for over 4 more years, at which point it will likely roll over or crash or something.

Edit: More calculating: Assuming it stores the time passed as a 32-bit signed integer with tenth of a second precision, it will overflow on Wednesday, September 14th, 2016 at about 9:01:53.7 AM EDT. However if it uses an unsigned integer, it will run on clear into the year 2023, at which point this phone will be an antique and may possibly be dead.

"Fiscal years" usually start midway through the previous year, in this case mid-2009. The iPhone 3GS came out on June 19, 2009, which is over three years ago.

Edit: I realized I didn't even see that you said "the end of the fiscal year," but my point still stands. Plus, nowhere on that "proof" you linked does it even say anything like that.
