On older handhelds I have two icons, one for each browser - BB and Internet. On the 8830 though, I seem to have only one icon, is this normal? Is there any way to get two icons for the browsers?

thanks in advance

I don't think you can get two icons. If you go into the browser, select "Go To ..." and click the menu button, you'll see an option for "change browser". That's the only way I know of to select the internet browser vs. BB browser vs. wap browser (other than changing the default browser).
