PalmOS has DES and MD5 built in last I checked.
You can implement full crypto algorithms, but the processing takes a
little time since it is not a fast processor.
But I've implemented an entire Open PGP (rfc 2440) library for the
Palm. It may be available somewhere, and was based on my rfc2440
reference implementation (with smaller buffers for the Palm) and
extending the port of PilotSSLeay, which itself contains a lot of
crypto library calls.
