This is just a brief thought on what Apple should include in its next update of its iPhone firmware. How about a simple way to categorize applications - similar to how the iTunes app store works? I would like to be able to group my games separately from my news apps which of course should be separated from my financial and VoIP applications.
Apple already organizes these applications in iTunes, why does the iPhone home page become a dumping ground for unorganized icons? Seems like with over 15,000 apps available in the App Store, now is as good a time as any to get some spring cleaning help from the developers at Apple.

Sites like iGoApps.com http://www.igoapps.com/ appear to do a better job of categorizing and making apps easier to find. Surprising Apple doesn't make this a priority!
