I think I found a workaround for the browser crash (when exiting the browser, the phone locks up and kicks back to the sped dial after a few seconds). I wasn't able to find it posted.
Basically, you want to hit the second browser button from the top on the left side (the one that zooms the page out so you can zoom into a movable window) and be in that view when you exit. It avoids the crash completely. I'd like people to try it, I tried it several times and it seems to work.
1. it's stupid
2. we shouldn't have to do anything like this
But hopefully it'll help a little until things get sorted out.
Again, i didn't see this posted, ignore it if it has been posted previously.
