Hiding the Wi-Fi icon will involve hacks, and I can't ensure stability then. Mind, you could probably move the icons yourself from the 18x18 folder in /usr/share/icons.

Well. the applet just tells you what value was given to it. I can jump up the values, but then I'd be making the widget an untruthful one.

Ah, wait, it doesn't work on dBm; look at http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/5.0-fi...044019a4a98fd4
