Default A few BB Curve questions

I just got my BB Curve 8530 today and I love it, however, I've spent all day trying to figure it out, as the manual barely scratches the surface. I've made some progress, but I still have a few questions:

1. How do I set the phone to JUST vibrate, without the ringtone? I can only set it to just ring, or vibrate + ringtone

2. When I go onto the browser, I can search for websites, but I can't type a web address in -- there's no address bar

3. Not as important, but in the Games section in Word Mole, once I create a word, how do I enter it? When I create a word and press the cursor pad, it adds new letters to the word. If I start typing a new word, it adds it to my previous word, rather than recognizing it as a new word

4. And finally, what are the 2 buttons on the upper right hand side of the SIDE of the BB?

Thanks!!

1.) Go to Profiles and Select Vibrate
2.) Press the BlackBerry Key (the one to the left of the trackpad) and select Go To
3.) Sorry, no clue.
4.) There are actually three buttons, the top two adjust volume settings up/down and the single bottom one in the default setting should open your contacts.

When you say enter, do you mean click the track pad, because that doesn't work for me.

No, you have to press the ENTER key, which is below the DEL key.
