Wouldn't it be cool to be able to delete some of the Default Apps

Moving them to another screen doesn't help as they are still eating up memory.

Well, they are eating up space on the device, not memory - they aren't loaded into memory until you run them. In any case, those apps aren't taking up hardly any space, if you are so close to running out of room on your iPhone, clearing those would only give you space for maybe a few extra songs.

You should be able to hide icons in the normal release and even use folders and such. No reason to neuter the device.

You can do this after its jail broke so once they release a 2.0 update you'll be all set.

Ignore the people that only want what apple force feeds them. There are plenty of way to customize your phone the way you want it with free apps available after you jail break.

I don't like the contacts icon

I'm still unsure why this is even there. What has it given us over using the contacts button under phone? Good for iPod Touch users maybe, stupid for people with an iPhone.

Some of us don't want to JB their phones. I did it and went back in under a month. That doesn't mean I accept what Apple force feeds me, it just means I have no use for JB'ing a phone.

No, deleting the cell antenna would make it no longer a PHONE. But deleting the Apps that Apple has created would no longer make it an iPhone. The iPhone is all about a great software/User Interface. If you deleted all of Apples Apps, and say, installed Apps create by Verizon, the phone would suck.

There needs to be a bare minimum standard of quality. Having those dozon Apps on every iPhone assures this.

Whether you think that there are 3rd party apps that do a better job of the Apple pre-installed Apps is irrelevant.

I don't see how quality is irrelevant. If the third party applications are better, installing them improves the phone as a result. The third party applications are still exclusive to the iPhone.

I don't know if it can/will be released through the app store, but there's an application for jailbroken iPhones called Poof! that lets you delete unwanted icons from the screen.
