One of them is Launcher Pro - the one I'm using on my Tab; others work too, you'll see in the program's menu, with the notable exception of touchwiz
The thing is, I like touchwiz, don't really want to use another launcher. Plus I've heard launchers eat battery life.

I use Zeam for a launcher... it's minimal, lacking some features, but doesn't eat up my battery life at all. I'd just avoid using heavy themes with a ton of launcher specific (read: Calendar) widgets.

Now... a question for you all. I've been on the hunt to replace Penultimate and Readdle (both iPad) for my Android tablet.

I just need a good eBook reader that doesn't mind the larger PDF's that I throw at it, and can catalog/list my eBooks.

And I'd love a pen/note taking tool. I've tried: Extensive Notes, FreeNote, Handrite, MaplePaint (ok, I like this one for different reasons). SyncSpace has come the closest, but it's not... there yet.

Maplepaint, Evernote, and note everything do a pretty good job for note taking.

Note Everything

For book reading Aldiko, Moon+, and DaoCaoXieReader are by far the best

Thanks. But let me clarify... I'm seriously looking for handwriting notes. I have Evernote installed as well already.

Moon+ was exactly what I was looking for.

Zeam seems good, but will it do what I am asking for? :s

Not without either setting up folders and placing that into the bottom launcher area or using something else to accomplish what you want.

I mean, within Zeam, I used to have a folder that's set aside for all of the tools that I use the most frequently. I set that folder - an Android standard - into my launcher and went with that while using Zeam.

Now, I have adopted a different method, SiMi Folder is what I use now, on my desktop. It's a bit more like iOS style folders and does what I need - I can scroll left to right within an expanded folder... mind you, I also own an iPad, so that form of folders is quite "normal" to me.

The others have pointed to what might be a 1 for 1 replacement for what you're looking for from your Maemo 5 experience.

Does Android retain market tags on apps? I'm not sure that I've ever seen tags like "games" or "utilities" and such on applications anywhere within the operating system. I think that would be a great thing to have, though... and I'm kinda surprised if it doesn't exist somewhere but I'm not aware of it.

As for launchers that eat battery life--most of the best ones don't. LauncherPro is what I use and it doesn't... mainly your battery vampires tend to be the widgets that run on top of the launchers, not the launchers.

If you go market.android.com there is a "Categories" button. There's a lot of them but some apps are under 2 or 3 categories.

The stylus works by having a conductive point that works through creating heat through having it powered by battery and unlike active digitizers it doesn't require specialized hardware and probably could work with most capacitive touch screens. The second one is a ripoff of the livescribe smartpen accept it doesn't require specialized paper and it wirelessly sends data to an idevice. The idea clearly isn't new but the implementations seems pretty well done. Also knowing that it is an Apple product, Apple will make a big deal about call it revolutionary and make stylus popular again, that is if it makes it to market. So I would be VERY happy to see GOOD (not those crappy capacitive styly like the the pogo type solutions) cost effective solutions for taking notes and drawing with a precise point end.
So... first Steve Jobs says that "If you need a stylus, you failed" or something like that, and now they apply for a patent for something that their god almighty says it's a fail?

Of course this will be welcomed by fanbois as revolutionary and magical!

EDIT: here it is:
Jobs: If you see a stylus or a task manager, 'they blew it'
