I just wonder if one can switch between windows in Exposé with the cursor keys, which would save me the mouse.
Real men don't click...
It would also be nice to assign a letter to some window with e.g. Shift-A, so one could get back to that window by pressing A only.
Thanks,
Daniel

So I can definitely stop whining for multiple desktops.
But no shortcuts, right?

Shortcuts ?
You can press the F keys for the Finder windows, all apps of to hide the windows (show desktop)

If you frequently switch between only a few windows, Exposé would allow you to assign a one-letter shortcut to any window. When pressing one of the F-keys to activate Exposé, you could assign a shortcut by pressing Shift-M for the Mail window, Shift-X for the Terminal and so on. The next time you active Exposé, you could simply press X and the Terminal would appear. Two keys would be sufficient to access any of your window (unless you have more than 26). Exposé would also show the shortcut-letter on top of each window so you don't have to remember too much.

How does Exposé work with dual monitors? I'm guessing that it just shrinks with both screens, but I would love to hear a confirmation.
The only other idea I could come up with would be to only shrink the screen that contains the cursor, but that would be silly.

I tested this on a coworkers system. It will shrink the windows from both monitors onto only the main window (The one with the menu bar and dock)
