How do I navigate away from preferences?

How do I navigate away from the preference page for Firefox on my Android device? I see no tools for navigation that will get me back to web browsing, and both the "menu" and "back" keys on my phone are not functional while in Firefox preferences.

Sorry, this appears to be a bug in Firefox 4 beta 3 for Android. (See this bug report for example.) Hopefully it will be fixed in the next release.

For now, you will need to use the "Home" button and then go to the Android settings app to force-close Firefox and then re-open it.
