Just press the escape David, top left of the keyboard.

Hi Jackie,

with K, so one can look around the key board, how do you turn it off?

Hi David

The VO keys are the Control and Options keys pressed down together.  On the
keyboard, they are the second and third keys from the left along the bottom
row.  I do not know what the first one does, but have a feeling it is an FN
key.  So when anyone tells you to press the VO keys, they mean Control and
Options together, then another key such as H for Home, K for Help, space for
opening the application or entering.

I hope that helps.

Hi Jackie,

I normally hit the escape until it takes me back level by level, then I use
the VO keys with H, or press the home button on the iPod itself.  I haven't
worked out how to close an app on the keyboard yet.  Our resident guru
Gordon Keane might be able to help there.

Hi Jacky

Thanks for that. Should have some eyes today to have a look at the manual. 
But can you close an app with the keyboard?
