Widgets, as they are called, can be changed or moved around on the screen. If you tap and HOLD on an existing one, like an icon or clock or search bar etc, a trash can should show up at the bottom of the screen. Before the test build I put up, that proved to be difficult due to it double tapping. But if you are running with that test kernel it should work fine. Tap and hold and drag down to the trash can to remove something. Different widgets take up more space on the screen. And clocks and such usually take up 1/3 to 1/2 of the screen. So if you have a lot on there, you won't be able to put a clock on there.

Once you get enough screen space, you can hit MENU and then ADD I believe, and select Widget or icon or whatever you want. And then find it and add it. From there you can tap and hold and move things around if you wish.

Another way is to just tap and hold in a blank part of your screen, it will pop up with the same menu.

ya... I know how to move them around, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a widget for the clock app that has the weather in it also, just like the senseUI on windows mobile (which I have currently).

Go into the market and download "Beautiful wigets". You ask an awful lot of questions that have already been answered. I think it's about time you start skipping back 30 or 40 pages and get some reading in. We even have pictures.

I normally search the sh*t out of the forum but I've been keeping up to date with the posts and hadn't found anything on it.
I'll give it a try.

thanks!

A simple google search will lead you to what you want. If you are smart you will see.
