That is not correct. You can navigate by links heading and so on. You in
like safari use two fingers red apart like you are going to turn a nob and
do this jester on the screen and it will change from heading, links and so
on. I know I have the iPhone and do it all the time. Now if this is not what
you are talking about then accept my apology.

Subject: Re: iPad bluetooth keyboard

Hi Chris,

My guess is that you may be able to use a restricted set of the VO  
keyboard commands with the iPad.  On the iPhone and the iPod Touch you  
have VO gestures for the rotor to change modes for input and also to  
use for navigation.  Although you do your typing on the virtual  
keyboard, and use gestures for the other touch screen functions, I  
can't imagine that the iPad would make you alternate between typing on  
a keyboard and then moving over to touch the screen just to handle  
some of the navigation you would carry out with gestures on the touch  
screen.  That would really be clunky!  On the other hand, one of the  
current limitations with using VoiceOver on the iPhone or iPod Touch  
is that you can't use find or move to an arbitrary position in a  
document or a web page, You can flick through links etc. but you can't  
move to an arbitrary position based on a context search. It would  
really be nice if features like these could be added.  One of the  
things that would make reading eBooks more convenient with VO would be  
general bookmarking of specific locations within pages on the device.

Cheers,

Esther
