The dialer app, is probably the one I will miss most, was really handy to be able to just start spelling names or numbers.
I also don't have voice to text everywhere, but noticed GBDs post about installing the HTC Keyboard, I'll look for that. Maybe drop that in your guide.
Also a bit of a problem, I don't have data anyways (not worth the extra cash to me, maybe if they had a 10$ 150MB plan or something) and so I get annoying text messages about attempted data use. With E911 I could turn network data off entirely, but I cannot find that option with Cyan and can only turn it to 2G only. So I'll still get annoying txts.
Wow, long post, I'll stop here. LOL

To turn off your data you can download "Quick settings" from the market. It has an option for toggling wireless data on and off.
For SMS widget you can download and install Handcent SMS from the market. The on screen widget is only an ICON that will show you the number of unread messages, but when you have incomming SMS it will pop up a screen with the message even if the phone is locked.
This weekend I'll update my guide to point to a download location for the HTC Keyboard or if preferred (It's what I'm using) a version of swype that will work for you.
Sorry, I can't help with the picture widget. I never used it so I haven't looked for a replacement.
Also never used widgets for Dialer or Contacts so I can't help you with those either. I can suggest however that you try LauncherPro Beta from the Market. It gives you the ability to have from 1-7 home screens and it also keeps 4 icons on your screen at all times at the bottom with the application launcher button. They are Dialer, Contacts, SMS and Web
hope I've been of some help.
