My thoughts exactly. It would be nice if there was 1 way of doing things. I've also noticed that tabbing through controls isn't as consistent as it could be, which is something I'd like to see fixed - I don't always want to have to keep interacting with everything just to access, say, an item in a table.

A big frustration in transitioning to Mac and VO for me is how navigating wroks differently in different situations. On my Macbook Air, I press Shift VO Function left arrow to to to the top of my in-box list in Mail. For the bottom of the list it's Shift VO Function right arrow. Sounds like a lot, but the keys are all right together. Same commands work on a web page. Note, you need to be interacting with the list for the in-box commands to work. In a document some of the standard OSX commands work independently. This includes Command up and down arrows for top and bottom of document, command left and right arrows for beginning and end of line. Page up and down don't seem to work in conjunction with VO consitently. It works in Pages, but not always in Text Edit, and nobody has been able to explain why it works sometimes and sometimes not. Anyone know about jumping to the top of a finder list?
