There are plenty of home screen launchers for our phones which have
exactly what you were writing about including folders.

Go to the androidzoom market and search for "launcher" you will see a lot of them and most of them are free. Most have the features you are looking for so its best to download 5-6 of them to find out which you like best.

Good luck,
have a great day.

The first two to check out is the ADW Launcher and the other is Go Launcher.

Those seem to be very popular.

Check it out,
Have a great evening!

Go launcher lets you make folders within the App Drawer. Just drag an icon on top of another one and it will make a folder with them in it. Long press to get into edit mode to rename the folder. It's great.
