Pocket Internet Explorer Shortcuts

Open Pocket IE in Full Screen
Pressing Menu, then V, then F, will quickly bring up Internet Explorer in Full Screen viewing. (Essentially, you open Internet Explorer's Menu, select View, and then select Full Screen viewing.) This eliminates the top and bottom status line as well as the Web address bar to maximize the screen reading area for Web pages. You can switch back to normal viewing mode by pressing RightSoftKey-Menu-V-F.

Favorites Shorcuts
To quickly select your favorites in Internet Explorer, press the Menu key, then F, to bring up the Favorites list. Even though none of your favorites have underlined letters, you can still select them by pressing the first letter in any name. If several sites have the same first letter, press that letter repeatedly to scroll through them. For instance, if you want the second Web site that starts with "M," press the T key twice. If you want the third, press the M key three times. It seriously speeds up navigation and saves you from unnecessary scrolling. To visit a Web site just press the Enter key to select it.

Moving Backward & Forward
In Internet Explorer, the back button takes you to the last Web page you viewed. If you are in full-screen mode, you can press LeftSoftKey-Back. If you pressed the Back button by accident and want to return to the Web page you were just viewing, press O to select the Forward option in the Menu list. ('F' is used to select Favorites so 'O' is used for Forward.)
