Can anyone recommend any good Greasemonkey scripts for use with MicroB Greasemonkey plugin, especially useful for tablets?

Some I've found pretty useful:
Google Calendar Header and Navigation Switcher http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/8507
Google Reader Minimalistic http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/12197
Adblocking FiltersetP http://userstyles.org/styles/299 (seems to work for most ads)

Is it just me or does that scriot still download the ad and then just hide them ? Cause i see them for a second and then when the site finishes loading they disappear.
This is weird cause the worst part about ad on the tablet are downloading them (and cpu time for flash stuff).

Noticed that today, too. Maybe I'm deluded, but it didn't seem to do this when I first installed it ?...

Yes, unfortunately that's how Greasemonkey works, it only transforms the page after the page's DOM tree has been loaded. To really block them we still need something like the Firefox Adblock extension... which I don't think is working on MicroB yet.
