Galaxy Nexus, December 17, 2011
This is my homescreen from the Samsung Galaxy Nexus and Android 4.0 "Ice Cream Sandwich." I like the simple News & Weather widget (at the top). I wish it was available on other Android devices and not just stock Android. I like that the space-saving Google search box is now anchored to the top of every screen. The folder treatment in ICS is good (see Google folder) and I really dig the new Google Currents app. It's also great that's there now a screenshot option in ICS --> Power + Volume Down.

Motorola Droid Razr, December 2011
Here's my homescreen setup on the Motorola Droid Razr I've been testing in December. You can see the custom Droid wallpaper in the background and the Verizon data counter in the upper left corner. I mostly have my favorite apps from Google on the homescreen. Also note the quick access to the Mobile Hotspot at the bottom -- this is huge on a Verizon LTE device even though it drains battery life and causes the back of the Razr to get really hot.

HTC ThunderBolt, July 2011
Here's my Android homescreen on the HTC ThunderBolt. HTC has some great themes but I prefer a simple one ("Slate") and I like HTC's default time and weather widget, even though it takes up a lot of space. The newest addition to my homescreen is the Google+ app. Otherwise, my homescreen is dominated by apps I use for CBS businesss -- Gmail, Google Calendar, GoogleTalk, Voicemail, etc.
