When I mean the option and command keys not working, if you go into VO's practice area, and press the keys to find out their functions, you can press the command and options and both say these things. However, when using Voice over properly in messages and notes and other applications, you can't get command or option to work let alone they will not speak. So if you did try and copy text with shift down arrow or what ever it is to select text, if you did try and press command C, V or X to copy paste or cut, then that will not happen as the command key will not work.
I hope this makes sense, as it's the same for the option keys so you can't do traditional vo commands unless you have the proper Apple Wireless Bluetooth keyboard. The Apple keyboard is excellent but it will not fit in a hand bag. Kawal.
