How TO: Add additional home screens I've filled all 5 with widgets need more space !!

I've been configuring my N1 for the past week over WiFi,

Downloading and installing some amazing apps from the market

and i have run out of Home Screens...

iPhone has 11 screens... and a technique to add more...

any technique on the N1?

Any help here guys>?

i will become an active N1 user from 14 May 2010.

Thanks in advance

P.S.> Don't suggest any paid apps, because they can't be accessed here in India

helix launcher can add 7, another launcher can do 9.
Am I wrong in assuming that iPhone has 11 screens, but no app drawer? its one in the same right?
isn't pulling the drawer the same effort as turning a page and then scrolling for your app?
IMO the screens are meant for customization and widgets to go along with your theme of that page.
In any event, there is also an app called More Widgets, that allows you to put 4 icons in the space of one. This gives you a net 64 applications on 1 page, can the iPhone do that?

Dear Mr. Slim,

Thank you for pointing me in the direction of "HelixLauncher"

I have installed both versions, and now have 5+7+7 screens

my only worry is that when i touch the home tab....

it asks me which to choose....and there is a DISTURBING Check Box.... ALWAYS use this programme....

Any suggestions?

when there are multiple apps that do the same thing, your phone will ask you which of these to use. Unless you want to click on HelixLauncher everytime you press home you should 'always' launch helix launcher.
This will automatically disable itself when the program is removed and can be changed back to 'stock' through the settings menu

Thanks for your input dimmakherbs

CLARIFICATION -

But i WANT TO KEEP ALL THREE OPTIONS and thereby have 19 screens

1) The "Stock" Launcher = 5 screens
2) HELIXLAUNCHER = 7 Screens
3) HELIXLAUNCHER2 = 7 Screens

then there is nothing you need to do. when you press home, click the launcher you want to be on at that moment.

another app is Home++. I can't get away from it. I keep trying to get myself to use Helix but always end up back on Home++ idk why though. I wish i could have the stock launcher just with more screens.
