That's what I did, set up a keystroke through shortcuts in system
preferences. I also killed the preview pane and just press enter to
open messages and cmd-w to close them. I prefer this because (1) I
don't have a message marked as read just because I arrow past it, and
(2) if vo ever does fail to land on the text, I just hit vo-a and it
will read the message. I almost forgot: with headers displayed, this
method also makes it much easier to see those headers.
In iTunes, I usually just hit vo-cmd-t to go to that table, but I'm
sure someone will describe a hotspot method. I never understood
hotspots so don't use them, but if I did then iTunes would be a prime
candidate.
