About tabbed browsing

With tabbed browsing, you can open multiple webpages on your BlackBerry smartphone at the same time. You can quickly
switch between tabs that are open, open a new tab without closing another, or close the current tab without closing the entire
browser. If you open a link that is in a message, calendar entry, or memo, the link automatically opens in a new tab.
The more tabs that you have open, the more memory your smartphone uses.
