    Default Download link from browser?


    Is there a way to download a link from a web page?
    (some sort of right-click save link as...)

    For example, with the G1 browser go to the web-page
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/podcasts/money/
    and click on the "download episode" link:
    http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/podcasts/...1021-0619b.mp3

    The G1 starts the music player application player the mp3.
    However I rather would like to download the mp3 file for later listening.

    Alternatively, there seems to be no way to make the music player save what it's playing.

    Maybe is there a keyboard shortcut?

    If you long press the link you will get a context menu with a "Save Link " option.
