om...
Got a replacement phone a few weeks ago, had to turn to my calendar
today to discover it keeps opening on August 2007, rang O2, they put
me through to S/E, who said to update the software via the pc.

Any ideas?

Check date settings of the phone itself, to ensure it actually thinks
its 2008.
What you are getting is what i'd expect if the phone thought it was
2007.
