Does HebDate integrate with the Palm Calendar?

Yes, HebDate by default integrates with all Palm devices. You can change this by going to Settings from the HebDate main screen. You can choose there if integration will start with the Hebrew Calendar, or the Secular Calendar, or you can turn it off. When integration is enabled, when you go to the DatePicker in any program (like the Palm DateBook), you will see the HebDate Calendar.

When I tap on Zmanim, I get a notice that the MathLib library is not installed!

HebDate's Zmanim use the MathLib Shared Library to do some calculations. It's a library that is used by many programs and may already be installed in your device. It's a free download at http://www.radiks.net/~rhuebner/mathlib.zip. See http://www.radiks.net/~rhuebner/mathlib.html for more information about the MathLib library.
