Well, once you press Escape, it closes that note, but you are still in the 
Notes folder.  It's the same as if you'd recorded a memo.  Once you stop 
recording, you have to get out of the memoes folder.  So, in this instance, you 
have to get out of the Notes folder.  Once you've pressed the Escape Key, then 
press 0 plus * to exit that folder.  Then, press either # or * to go find the 
book you were reading last.

I pressed escape and it gave a title to the file, but I continued in note 
mode. I pressed escape again and it said help file. I finally came out, but 
I'm not sure how.
What else should I press after escape in order to return to read mode?
