Re: What is up with the bulky icons, widgets and so on?

It's just part of the finger friendly design of Android. You can fit less on each screen, but each element is large and easily clickable.

I don't think anyone is working to change that specifically, but what you can do is download an alternative launcher. I use ADW.launcher, and it allows you to increase the number of widgets that fit on the screen and scale everything down in size I believe. Then you just stick on widgets for all the info you need.
