Settings>Applications>Manage Applications

Click on the app that you want to uninstall
Select "Uninstall"

Note: the apps that the eDGe comes with cannot be uninstalled.

The apps that come with it can be uninstalled: if you have root access, you just need to delete the appropriate apk /system/applications (not sure of the exact directory offhand). I removed the games, so I'd have fewer distractions.

Boris- you're right, and I only did it this way because these apps (1) don't provide an undelete method, and (2) probably don't have extra dependencies that would cause problems later. I wouldn't recommend it in general.

LOL. Which is why MSFT now makes those folders hidden by default.
