Thanks, that makes sense now. 

What would be a better way to position the widgets?

Your first widget has a 200 pixel top margin, and some amount of height 
(based on font, probably somewhere in the neighborhood of 30 pixels). Your 
second widget has a 275 pixel top margin. That is 505 pixels even before 
the second widget itself is supposed to display. The G1/emulator screen is 
480 pixels high. 

Try removing your margins, and I suspect your widgets will show up.
