Alex, I think you answered your own question, <smiles>. I will only use this keystroke in the Mail App. I spend considerable time reading through Mail in Conversation View. Now, I could press the Return Key, invoke a Read All command and then return to the message list. Being able to jump back and forth between the message list and the message text is probably the single keystroke I most use given the volume of mail from the Mac Visionaries and VI Phone lists. The proximity of the space bar and the J key on the braille keyboard is much preferred over its equivalent on the Mac keyboard.
