Or alternatively the timelines are quite screwed, yah. They can't be in 90s because of all the technology they had on show (laptops, iphones etc). Plus it links in with the "Why me?" question which stuck out like a saw thumb for me because the audience knows that the Doctor likes to pick up attractive women from Earth, especially if they've just helped him save the Universe. And actually it doesn't make sense for Amy to ask it either because she's been left hanging twice already and he knows that she had 4 psychiatrists and drew cartoons of him, so she should really be thinking "you owe me this." Basically everything is significant.
oh man, i so missed the importance of the "why me" and the crack on the screen the first time i watched it. i thought it was just amy being all suspicious because the doctor has failed her before! then the second time i watched it was GLARINGLY OBVIOUS.
