For browsing on Linux, people can try the Fire Vox extension. I've CC'd 
the author, Charles Chen, who can help with any questions.

Note, I haven't heard any feedback on how well it works. A few people 
should give it a try and let the list know if it helps them. It's 
possible to redefine the keys if you don't like the default set up.
