I'd like to know how to page down on large pages. It wouldn't be quite as bad if the joystick wasn't so sharp, but some pages just format very long.

As a side note to this request, I downloaded Opera Mobile and found that the up and down are page up and down, while left and right navigate links. This is vastly superior to what IE does, but at a price of $29. Tempting, to be sure, especially when I can use it over wifi...

Opera Mini 2.0 is free now as Java Midlet. I just downloaded it... seems like working fine.

The following info is for wm5 users...

Along with the two keys assignments requested by the original poster, there's a list of other useful key assignments that can be made. To see the whole list (where I got the following) go here:

1.Using a registry editor navigate to

KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer

2. Create a new key called "KeyMaps" (REGISTRY KEY)

3. Under KeyMaps, create 2 new DWORD values:

50 with a value data 1 (makes the 2 key do page up)

56 with a value data 2 (makes the 8 key do page down)

- OR -
