If someone else can confirm this... and if so I'll open a bug.
Mara, thanks for posting this. Indeed, I've experienced the same problem, not with the Google applet because I don't use it, but with Speed Contacts and Simple Launcher. They get stuck and you can't move them...for a while, then, suddenly, they can be moved! Sounds like a bug to me.

Now, I'm just at this moment updating to the latest firmware...much restoring to do then I'll see if it continues to occur.

I am on version 18 of leaked firmware.

I think I have figured out the technique. Use a light brushing/sweeping action with the stylus. This makes the clock applet move also, it is hard to place it precisely where you want, but it does move. Overdo the gesture and the clock launches.

Please report/vote if you are having similar issues.

Just to make this desktop applet moving issue more strange... Now I do not have any problems when moving them (44-4 firmware).

I have no idea what might have fixed it?

Guess what? Now I'm again having hard time on moving applets!



It certainly is random...

UPDATE: It seem like if the first thing you try after waking up from sleep (I had it on keylock), you try to move applets you may see this... Now, when I clicked some other menu (application) once... the applet moving started to work better...
