Section 8: Browser
This section outlines how to launch the Browser, how to navigate
to other pages on the web, and how the keys on the QWERTY
keypad are used with the web application. Additionally, links to
other sites are briefly discussed.
Browser
With the Browser, you can conveniently surf the web and
download ringtones and wallpapers using your phone. Each time
you launch the Browser, your phone connects to the Internet and
the service indicator icon (
) displays on the screen.
Stored Web Content
The Internet connection ends after a certain period of inactivity,
however some information from your session remains stored in
the phone (if you leave your phone turned on). You can access
this information without reconnecting to the Internet. However, if
you are viewing stored information, and you select a link to a site
that was not accessed in your last session, you automatically re-
connect to the Internet.

The
Browser
