No, dashboard isn't eye candy.
Dashboard contains a whole bunch of widgets and you can also search for and add other widgets. The widget I use most is the business widget which allows you to put in names of businesses, restaurants, etc. and it will bring up the address and phone number. You can then add them to your address book. The people widget does the same for finding people's phone numbers and addresses but it wasn't accessible last time I checked at least with safari 4 beta installed; if it is accessible for you or if it once again becomes accessible it's very helpful. The weather widget is also useable though I prefer the wunderground weather widget. I don't have all the info in front of me right now on searching for widgets etc but i or somebody else will help you if you decide to pursue this further.
To find all the different widgets already installed, when in dashboard, do vokeys-f2 twice and you'll se a menu. If the only choice is the widget menu bar and there are zero items, just hit enter and go through the vokeys-f2 twice process again and this time the menu list should have all the widgets listed. It's true that a lot aren't accdessible but the ones that work can be very helpful. What I've written just gives you a general idea and isn't meant to be a full explanation of widgets.
