Why dont app updates reload where I had them placed before? I like having my apps organized in a certain way, and whenever an app updates it deletes the old one and reinstalls them in the first free spots on my #1 home screen.

Is anyone else annoyed by this?

definitely. icons should definitely stay in their place after updates...it's just common sense.

Anything you download automatically goes in the next open slot. Be it the first page or the second page if the first page is full. Delete the old app. Press and hold "Home" until the icons wiggle. Then press the "x" on the old app to delete. Done. How is this a big deal? It's like you people look for stuff to complain about.

I don't mind reorganizing ONE app when it's updated.

The time 2.0 was installed, and I was syncing all the apps I had bought, was the worst, though -- EVERYTHING (over 60 icons) had to be reorganized again, and it took forever.
