Hello E.T., The full keyboard access setting can also be changed in system preferences. Select the keyboard button, choose the shortcuts tab, then use VO+LEFT and VO+RIGHT to navigate through the window and you’ll eventually find the full keyboard access setting. As well, you might want to set how the TAB KEY moves through web pages in Safari. That setting can be adjusted in Safari’s preferences under the advanced button.
As for your query about paging up and paging down, this has been a concern for me, too, since I started using OS X. I’m not sure what the best solution is either. As Alex mentioned, holding down an ARROW KEY will at least move you through a list or text field at a pretty good clip.
