Coupled with a well-organized Categories folder management plus the SB dock, you can have a one-page springboard, with your essentials in the SB dock, and the rest in Categories folders on the scrolling dock
Springboard contains all the basic iPhone apps + four Categories folders
I used a 5-icon dock configuration since it much easier on the eyes and you don't get that "crowded" feel
As you can see i have my essential apps on the dock. From the 3rd icon onwards on the dock's "2nd" page, these are all categories folders already. They are Recent, Navigation, MyToolkit, Messaging, OfficeTools

...
PS:
I'm not saying I've got a well-organized iPhone.. This is just an example and i bet a lot of you can do even better
