Somebody mentined this could be explained by multiple timelines, which gave me a similar idea. What if there aren't multiple timelines, but a single timeline, however the supply drops are from either the past or the future of the same timeline?
It has been shown that the Island moves in time. So supplies send in one time period - eg Dharma in the seventies, could theoreticaly arrive at the Island in different time then the time they originated.
So Widmore could have been connected to Dharma in the past, or will be in the future.

omg! you're totally right! i completely disagree with the multiple timeline idea, but i do agree that the island itself can and HAS been moved in time and/or space. i keep coming back to the failsafe key scenario, especially after the season finale. the "moving" of the island was so similar to what happened when the key was turned!
it took longer for that thing to arrive from the freighter to the island than it should have. and desmond traveled BACK in time in the helicopter on his way to the freighter. perhaps the island IS lost in time to widemore.
