Organize and manage items on iPod Touch/iPhone

I am a new user of the iPod Touch. It seems that the icons on the phone are just in a random order and spread across multiple screens. Is there a way to manage these like on my Blackberry? I would like to move them to different screens based on my preferences, but cannot seem to find a way. Nor can I really find a way to remove them other than by un-syncing them in iTunes. What am I doing wrong/missing?

"From the iPhone Touch User Guide available here

1. Touch and hold any Home Screen icon until the icons begin to wiggle
2. Arrange the icons by dragging them
3. Press the home button to save the configuration

Look under the Customizing the Home Screen section.

To remove an application:

1. Touch and hold any Home Screen icon until the icons begin to wiggle
2. Tap X on the corner of the Application you want to delete
3. Tap Delete and then home to Save the Home Screen

This can be found in the Deleting Applications section. Also ensure that you remove it in iTunes otherwise it will re-appear the next time you sync."

"Press and hold your finger on any icon, until it starts to jiggle.

Then you can get rid of any item by tapping the “X” or re-arrange them by dragging them around. You can drag them to other pages by dragging them to the edge of the screen.

When you're finished moving items around, hit the Home button to exit ""jiggling mode""."
