Thanks for the correction- I recalled a "9" being in there somewhere! Does
that include the first page prefilled with the default apps, or is it nine
more after that? (Not that it really matters, I guess- my wife is still
on her second page.)

9 pages, regardless if it's apple or 3rd party apps (and you can move
the apple ones off the first page too). also with jailbroken iphones,
you can install apps and hide their icons and then launch them with an
alternate launcher.
