To select a new year, you can use the up button to go backwards one year at a time, or the down button to go forward one year at a time.

You can tap the displayed year in the lower right hand corner, and the date picker will pop up so you can select a new year. Select any date in the year you're interested in, after selecting the year, and Solstice! will compute the solstices and equinoxes for the year you selected.

Solstice! can compute Solstices and Equinoxes for the entire date range on Palm OS 2.0 or later devices.

To change the time zone and location, tap the displayed location and Location Manager will be started so you can change the location.
