Please note that I fully grant that the "confusing" claim is contextual -- for those whose smartphone/tablet experiences are all on Android, I'm sure that it seems very intuitive.

Here's one example: on IOS, if you delete an app on the screen (by holding the home button until all the icons jiggle and then hitting the x on the icon) the app is gone/uninstalled. But I just discovered tonight (after downloading several email clients to find one that had threaded conversations) that when I deleted the icon off the home screen (by dragging to the trashcan) the app isn't actually gone. I was very surprised to find in the App list that all the apps I thought I had deleted were in fact still there. I find that confusing.

In fact, having several screens of icons AND having a global list of icons/programs is not very intuitive. I suppose I should think of those home screens as more like being populated with shortcuts?

And I can't move my widgets around on the screen. No matter what, they spring back to where they were.

And finally (for now ) I do not know why AwardWallet isn't in the Market and when I go there via the Google route, it tells me that it can't be installed to this machine.

Despite all that, I'm still enjoying the tablet a great deal.
