Standard way for doing this: <CTRL-^> (as Erik Falor
already pointed out).

:help CTRL-^

But this don't scales well IMO if you like to cycle through, let
say, 3 buffers... BTW, for 3+ buffers it is worth to have a look
on this:

Andy Wokula has written small and interesting plugin, which works
in the following way: you press <SPACE> and you see in the status
line the name of alternative buffer. If you press <ENTER> - you
jump to it. If you don't like this, you press <SPACE> again and
you see the name of the next buffer. It works like simulation of
<CTRL-TAB> Visual Studio behaviour.

Anton.
