There is an issue with using PlotLegend with DateListPlot (will be fixed 
in the future version).

For now, you could convert data to AbsoluteTime to make it work.

Needs["PlotLegends`"]

data1={{{2006,10,1},10},{{2006,10,15},12},{{2006,10,30},15},{{2006,11,20},20}};
data2={{{2006,10,5},15},{{2006,10,20},8},{{2006,11,10},5},{{2006,11,15},1}};

DateListPlot[Map[{AbsoluteTime[#[[1]]],#[[2]]}&,{data1,data2},{2}],PlotLegend->{"sine","cosine"},Joined->True]
