Hi Josh,
I can use spaces quite effectively by either using control with the
arrow keys to navigate to the four spaces that i have set up, or by
using control with the corresponding number.
For example, in my first space, the one that appears when Mac oS X
starts, i tend to use this for e mail and general communications, and
the second for my uni work, i.e. word processing etc.
If you leave Voice Over's very strange sounds set to on, then you'll
hear an audible tone when moving from one space to the next. I have
also found that if you leave the applications open in each space, i.e.
Mail in the first space, then if you get a message, you can simply
command tab to that application and yowl be taken directly to the
space where the application is. If however you close the application
window but still have the application running, and then decide to open
the Inbox window, it will be opened in the space you are currently
occupying.
I have not rid this with anymore than four spaces, but i assume it
would work.
Hope this explanation helps.

James,
How are you using it that it is useful? I can as yet, find no way
of having it cause any useful change in the system. How do you ahve
it set up and how are you using it? Thanks.

Shaun,
Spaces is very useful for us. I use it all the time. But as a list
member i think it was Jude, pointed out, the only thing that is a
bit inconvenient is that you can command tab between all open
applications not just the ones for that specific space. But apart
from that, it is a very useful feature.
Hope this helps
James
