I really like the web browser, opening links in a new page is very useful. However, there are a couple things I'd like to learn how to do.

1) How do I scroll one page at a time (PgUp, PgDn)? Sometimes using the trackball scrolls too much if links are spread apart.
2) How do I copy a single sentence from a webpage? Is there a Copy mode?
3) Any other tips and tricks for the web browser?

Double click/Press the trackball, it will bring a magnifier. In turn you can use it to search by page

To select press and hold shift key and roll trackball on text, If possible. After hold your finger on the text or hold trackball down and it will giv you a menu.

Thank you. The press and hold shift key and roll trackball on text doesn't seem to be working, though.. tried this with both shift keys.
