I'm assuming the Nexus 7 has 5 home pages, like ICS and Honeycomb did. The main, middle page seems to be dominated by the "My Library" widget in every preview that I see...with other Google Play recommendation widgets on some of the other homepages as you swipe left and right. Are those mandatory, non-removable widgets? Mainly the huge "My Library" one? Because I don't mind them, but it would really bug me if I am only allowed to put my own widgets (email, clock, weather) on homepage 1 or 5 or something, having to swipe left or right a few times to see them every time I wake the tablet up. Although I would understand, they are really trying to advertise this thing as a window to Google Play.

Also, can the 6 app icons on the bottom (not counting the middle icon that opens all apps) be switched out to other, non-google apps? Cause I would love to change those out as well. Maybe put a couple favorite games and the kindle app (ironic, I know) since I use them a lot.

Just wondered overall how customizable the main home page and bottom app bar is since I haven't seen it addressed...thanks!

I've read reviewers comment that those widgets can be removed like all other widgets. They're intended to give novice users somewhere to start.
