Chapter 7: Using the Browser application
176 BlackBerry Wireless Handheld
Closing the Browser application
If you receive a message or a phone call while you are browsing web pages, you
can switch to a different application without closing the current web page or
disconnecting the Browser application from the wireless network. Click the
trackwheel to view the menu and then click Hide. When you open the Browser
application again, you return to the last web page that you were viewing.
If you want to stop using the Browser application, click the trackwheel to view the
menu and click Close. The Browser is disconnected from the wireless network
and you return to the Home screen or to the last application in which you were
working. When you open the Browser again, the startup screen appears.

Note: On the startup screen, press ESC to close the Browser. You are prompted to
