This is the method I use as well. It's pretty much thhe same thing as using command-I, but it's the first one I found, since I didn't know about the keyboard shortcut.

If no one has already replied, I simply set the cursor on the file, used VO-keys plus m, cursored over to file (this is all if your in the finder of course), choose "always open with" and hit right arrow to expand this menu, choose the app from the pop-up menu, and there ya go. Not to bad, but if there's a shorter way, someone will let us know.
