How to Exit Out of Tabs on the Internet on a PSP

The PSP's Internet Browser 2.0 was counted among the major improvements of the 2005 2.0 firmware update. It's functionality is quite different than a traditional Internet browser in that a peripheral mouse and keyboard are traded for a digital keyboard on-screen. One of the similarities shared between the two types of browsers is "tabbed" browsing, which on the PSP, for its lack of hardware, remains distinct from any of today's typical Internet browsing experiences.
