Hi Rahul,
Here is the keyboard info for using the
apple bluetooth keyboard with your Ipod touch or
any other Apple device that accepts bluetooth keyboards.

VoiceOver using an Apple Wireless Keyboard
You can control VoiceOver using an Apple Wireless
Keyboard paired with iPhone. See
<http://help.apple.com/iphone/4/voiceover/en/iph6c494dc6.html>Using
an Apple Wireless Keyboard.
The VoiceOver keyboard commands let you navigate
the screen, select items, read screen contents,
adjust the rotor, and perform other VoiceOver
actions. All the keyboard commands (except one)
include Control-Option, abbreviated in the table below as “VO.”
VoiceOver Help speaks keys or keyboard commands
as you type them. You can use VoiceOver Help to
learn the keyboard layout and the actions associated with key combinations.

Hi all,
Thank you for your tips and encouragement.
I always read great things about these Apple devices on the Internet
and get encouraged, but I really get frustrated when they don't work
properly for me.
BTW, I have a question.
How do you people manage to find out which alphabet is which on a touchscreen?
You can easily locate all the keys on a normal keyboard after a bit of
practice, but how can you do that on a device which has a touchscreen?
