Getting time zone from address?

Question

Hi,

We're a paying customer of the VirtualEarth/Bing Maps REST API.

We are trying to fetch US time zone information given a street address, state, zip.

Currently, we are using 2 geolocation services to accomplish this: Bing Maps to fetch the lat/lon from the address, and a 3rd party service to fetch the time zone from that lat/lon. 

My question is, can we get time zone information from the Bing Maps API? I didn't see anything in the documentation, but wanted to confirm this is not possible.
