It sounds as though you should be able to use VO-keys shift space bar to click. That relies on having Mouse cursor tracks VoiceOver Cursor checked although, as Dan said, some people have had trouble with this combination. Some people uncheck "VoiceOver Cursor tracks Mouse Cursor" because, in case they have a mouse attached and accidentally move it, the VoiceOver Cursor location will also move unpredictably. With these settings do you still have problems clicking? The only instances where I've had problems with this (on a PowerBook and also on a recent Intel MacBook) is when the item I try to click on is actually off the screen. That's rarely the case.
