I can honestly say that I don’t read the manual for 99% of the stuff I buy or download. I would love it if the guys at Nokia just threw a simple index card in to the box with all the shortcuts I should know about.
It would be handy to have for reference purposes. It saves flipping a lot of pages. It makes you use your device to its maximum potential.
Out of all the shortcuts Ed has listed, the one that has become my favorite comes from the first comment on his blog post. Simply using the backspace key while in the application changer to close an app is brilliant. I did not know about this until reading his post.
Thanks Ed and Ryan!
UPDATE: Link fixed, thanks Nona
