Help Hide keyboard?

[mm43]

The keyboard gets in the way sometimes when trying to scroll down a page to add more text
Is there a way to hide it for a minute and then bring it up again?

The back button will get rid of the keyboard if it is in the way of what you want to see.

Touching in a text field should bring it back

pressing and holding the menu button also brings up the keyboard.
