Setting when closing flip phone Web disconnects?

Archived from groups: alt.cellular.sprintpcs (More info?)

I've noticed in my new Sanyo VI 2300 that when I close the lid on my flip
phone that the Web browser does not disconnect. Both my wife and I found
out
the hard way -- she left her browser online for 3 hours; me for about 20
min. I would've left it on even longer but I noticed the status line said
"ongoing" instead of the time.

Why can you hang up a call by flipping the lid, but not disconnect from
the
Web? There must be a setting SOMEWHERE!

Not only that, but you weren't connected to the web after a couple of
minutes, as SPCS will disconnect the web connection with no activity on the
phone.

If a call had been directed to either one of your phones, it would have rang
...., so really it's not that big a deal.
