All is working great! I love this. But, I install things from the market and they don't show up in my extras. How come? Where do they go?

Another option is to install 2 apps available in the Market: home switcher and Zeam (or another home screen / launcher program). The alternative home screens update immediately when you install a new app.

One other thing to consider: once you have set your NC up the way you like it, you may find yourself downloading apps much less; and so the "reboot to refresh" or "kill home screen to refresh" may not be much of an issue.

However, I use Zeam as my default home screen/launcher. I like a clean home screen - I only have a few icons on the bottom bar, and a clock on my main screen. I keep shortcuts on the other home screens (not the default). On the rare occasions I need the actual B&N home screen / launcher, I run the app "home switcher" and select Home.
