Can I remove the 'Stocks' button from my iPod home screen?

No

You can’t.

That sucks! I don’t want this on mine either.

Booooooo. >:(

(and thanks!)

You can move it to the last page so you don’t see it on the home screen.

I did what @missingbite suggests with the Stocks, iTunes, Contacts, and Weather icons on my iPhone.

I moved mine too.

If you are willing to jailbreak your ipod, you can hide the stocks application, and any other application you don’t want to see anymore. You can download a jailbreak utility here. This will work for all versions of iPod, iPhone, and even the new iPad.

@missingbite, @hearkat. & @johnpowell – Yeah, that’s what’s going to have to happen. I just was hoping there was a way to get rid of it completely.
