- unfortunately, it's non-intuitive either in os2007 or os2008...
- Tools (Settings)->Control Panel->Navigation (Personalization)->Panels->Applications (Organize button)
- this task should be a one- or two-click drag-and-drop action, but someone decided to do it the Microsoft Way™

i have os2008, and it works (drag and drop) once you find it!!!!
i feel like such a newbie! after all what is a "panel"! if it said "organize applications" instead, i would have found it myself!!!

I opened Organize and tried to drag-n-drop "images" from My Selection to Extras.
The little icon followed the stylus over, then scooted back. It never stayed where I drag it.
Finally about the 10th time it worked.
Repeating it it still doesn't work reliably.
/edit - finally got mahjong to move

It's buggy in my n810, too, while it was ok on os2007 (n800). It takes several trials to move an icon, and at times using another group as an intermediate base.
I am going to file is as a bug on maemo bugzilla (if I find it

Dropping it on the name of the category didn't do as you'd expect.

sometimes things do take several trials with the n800/os2008...
for example drop down menus on the browser got
stuck on the bottom line, and cannot move to the second from the bottom... i tricked it by going to the top and then scrolling back down!
i get used to the multiple trials and don't even notice...
but i did need to drag and drop a couple times too to move the applications!

utilities , internet, or extras.
i put all of them in extras but now i want to organize them.
how can i change the folders?
