I'm all for adding new stuffs, but I just don't get the need for a weather widget, when I get the same info (and more) from a weather app. The guy in the video had a calculator widget... what's wrong with the calculator app on the home screen?
Edit: I guess that's probably what Apple meant by "it contradicts the iPad experience."

I just want a better home screen, and think widgets would be a good way to do it. On my mac, i have the weather widget, gmail, NHL scores and a couple other things. I think i'd be nice to have all that info at a quick glance without having to open up 3 or 4 full apps.
