I've always thought this sort of an interesting question. You can see what people deem important as well as find some handy new apps that you may not have heard of. Here's mine. Post a screenshot, what's on yours?

*Not sure how to grab a screen shot of your phone, check out this post.

Here's my iPhone home Screen below. Interesting to see I keep two weather apps handy. I live in a flood zone and need to see what to expect during the winter.

I have an iPod, but I almost exclusively use the home screen for social networking. The other 3 screens are games, and random apps I'm testing.

Non-Apple apps on my homescreen include Foursquare, my Twitter client du jour (currently Tweetie 2), Sonos (for controlling my home stereo), Things (a todo app I am trying out), and the GMail, GReader & GCalendar triumvirate. Evernote gets a place on the dock.
I used blackra1n to jailbreak and winterboard to add wallpaper & remove app labels.

My home screen is pretty utilitarian. Of note are the two streaming audio apps and a password LockBox.

Nothing too outrageous. There are some similarities to other screenshots above. I've been on a game kick lately, filtering the app store via toucharcade.com. Crossfingers has recently unseated Minesweeper to be my time-killer of choice. Also, I like taking photos with my iphone, but I have the home-button double-click set up to switch to the camera so I didn't need it on the home screen. I've been using Recorder a lot recently to remember riffs or drum patterns that my friend and I come up with during practice.

I wish Apple would allow the user to not sync a few of the built-in apps. My last page of apps are all of these: Stocks, music store, Notes, Voice Memo, Contacts (why do I need the contacts app when I can get to the same thing from the phone app?)

The three I go to most are OmniFocus, which syncs very well with a desktop version so that tasks are always up to date and accessible; Tweetie; and Public Radio App. This is one of the best public radio apps I've found — clear interface, easy searches and favorites marking. And GoWalla is a strange addiction as of late. As a developer of a location-based iPhone game and an Austinite, I have to support the hometown boys.

Obviously I'm jailbroken. I used blackra1n most recently because it let me unlock the phone to travel in Europe and use a prepaid SIM.

You'll note that I'm using a 5-column look. It's great for cramming more things on the screen, provided you're not picky about the layout, because long titles next to each other overlap. My messaging/social apps are at the top as they tend to be the most frequently used aside from the homerow apps.

Stanza gets used a lot, as I ride the train to work and use the phone for reading ebooks. Facebook also gets used a lot. The third app you can't see because it's hidden: SBSettings, which lets you swipe across the top bar and get a popup menu to enable/disable phone features. Otherwise email and calendar are the other most-used apps.
