Using Web Browser's features
Web Browser is fast and has a number of features that make it easy to use. The
browser is secure and has an informative tips that help you effectively access the
web.
Web Browser is easy to use
Web Browser is easy to use because it works much like the web browsers you use
on your desktop computer. You can enter web addresses (also called
URLs—Uniform Resource Locators), create bookmarks to mark favorite pages,
save pages, and even download files directly to your handheld.
More importantly, Web Browser is designed to be used on the small screen of your
handheld. It forces images to fit the handheld's screen; it doesn't clutter your
screen with fancy icons; and it handles technical features (like plug-ins) with
minimal input from you.
Web Browser is fast
Web Browser is designed with the knowledge that you may be viewing web pages
using a slow connection. Web Browser processes each web page to make the
download as fast as possible, compressing the text, removing some large images,
and compressing other images. In addition, Web Browser has preferences that you
can adjust to make downloading even faster.
Because wireless Internet connections tend to be slower than the wired connections
common on desktop computers, Web Browser also avoids downloading a web
page when it can display that page from memory. Before it downloads a web page,
it can check with the web server to see if the content in memory is up-to-date.
