Using the Browser application

Before you begin

To use your Browser, you must be in an area with sufficient wireless coverage for
browsing web pages. You can browse web pages if GPRS and one or more bars
appears with the wireless coverage indicator in the handheld status section of the
screen. You might be able to browse web pages if gprs and one or more bars
appears with the wireless coverage indicator.
Note: Depending on your service provider's plan, some applications might not be
available on your handheld. Contact your service provider or network operator for more
information on available services.
Depending on your service provider's plan, you might not be able to save bookmarks,
open web pages from links in your messages, or type specific web site addresses. Contact
your service provider or network operator for more information on using these features of
the Browser application.
When you first receive your handheld, the Browser might not be activated. To
determine whether your Browser is activated, start the Browser. If the startup
screen appears, your Browser application has been activated. If the startup screen
does not appear, contact your service provider or network operator.
You can also view the service books that are associated with the Browser to check
your Browser application status.
To view the Browser service books
1. On the Home screen, click the Options icon. The Options screen appears.
2. Click Service Book. The Service Book screen appears.
3. If your Browser application is installed correctly and is active, several service
book entries appear on the Service Book screen.
Note: If the service book configurations for your Browser application do not appear on
the Service Book screen, contact your service provider or network operator.
Depending on your service provider's plan, the Service Book configurations for your
Browser might be called WAP Browser Config (service provider's name), WAP
Transport (service provider's name), and IPPP Browser Config (service provider's
name).
You can set your handheld to automatically accept the new service book entries it
receives. In the Browser Options, on the General Properties screen, select the
Auto-Accept Service Books check box. Refer to "Setting general Browser options" on
page 160 for more information.
