    No, the home button will just send you to the homescreen of the browser.. There should be something in preferences that will allow you to disconnect upon exit.

    Hmm...when I hit my home button I go to the apps screens and my connection(little arrows above the signal strength) go from green to gray. So I think the home button does disconnect. Check out your arrows....

    Yes, since only one application at a time can be open on a Palm, pressing the Home button and going to your launcher disconnects you from the internet. That is how I do it.

    When I hit my home button it goes back to keytoss. To be honest I can't tell what color my little arrows are... they are far to little.

    Thanks Steve, keytoss is pretty cool, I just set it all up. I made it my Home page on Blazer, but when I pressed my Home hard button on the phone, it went to my launcher screen and I was exited from the internet. Blueonblackstrat, it should work the same way for you too.

    I think that the OP is referring to the Home hard button on the phone (next to the Envelope email button) and not the Home button on Blazer. If you press the Home hard button on the phone, it definintely disconnects you from the internet.
