    hook_widget() has been renamed to hook_field_widget_form() in Drupal 7. There’s also some new arguments for it.

    http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules–field–field.api.php/function/hook_field_widget_form/7

    <?php
    /**
    * Implements hook_field_widget_form().
    */
    function number_field_widget_form(&$form, &$form_state, $field, $instance, $langcode, $items, $delta, $element) {
      // use += to avoid overwriting incoming $element
      $element['value'] += array(
        // Fill in $element.
      );
    
      return $element;
    }
    
    /**
    * Implements hook_field_widget_error().
    */
    function number_field_widget_error($element, $error, $form, &$form_state) {
      form_error($element['value'], $error['message']);
    }
    ?>
    

    @See http://drupal.org/node/728792
