Hi. I'd learn to use quicknav. You can activate this by pressing both the left and right arrow keys at the same time. If you've used an iPhone with a wireless keyboard before, the commands will be very similar. There is a decent amount about quicknav in the VO help activated with VO question mark. If you were to go the route of purchasing a wired keyboard with numpad, that'd be one more thing to carry around with you if you're Mac is a laptop. JMO, Matthew Campbell.
