To add to what has already been mentioned, there is no PC cursor or JAWS
cursor mode in Window-Eyes. That is, the dedicated arrow keys will
always move your keyboard focus, and the mouse movement keys will always
move the mouse. When using the laptop layout, route your mouse to the
keyboard by pressing Capslock-Dash. Capslock-U, I, and O moves to the
previous, current, and next line. Capslock-J, K, and L moves by words,
and Capslock-M, Comma, and Period moves by characters. Capslock-7, 8,
and 9 moves by clips. Capslock-Semicolon performs a left click and
Capslock-Apostrophe simulates a right click. All of these hotkeys can be
adjusted to your liking under the Keyboard area of the Window-Eyes
settings tree. Note that in the case of Insert-J, you might want to
remove the JAWS Quick Key app if you don't use it as the two commands
will conflict.
Finally, the Window-Eyes tutorial included on your CD covers all of this
(though using the default layout). I think it will help, especially if
you are still learning WE.

And to add to what Ralf said, I don't know what the Jaws cursor does,
but one of the benefits of the WE cursor is that it doesn't trigger
events that fire when the mouse pointer moves over an object or
particular location.

Use insert + plus-sign, it routes the mouse to the cursor. Then use the
numpad keys 2 and 8 to explore the control. Also insert 8 and insert9
helps
a lot, it will bring you to the next and previous clip.

Subject: comparing JAWS and WE's mouse simulations and cursor routing
Hi all,
I happen to be a user of both WE and JAWS depending on the application
running in a particular situation, but I'd like to be as efficient at
WE's
cursor routing and mouse simulations as I am with those of JAWS. For
instance, one thing I use a lot in JAWS is that I route JAWS' cursor
to the
PC's cursor to receive information that I can't normally see with the PC
cursor. What is the equivalent command, as well as the equivalent term,
used in WE? I hate having to switch back to JAWS just for cursor routing
issues. And unlike the JAWS cursor, I find that switching to the WE
cursor
doesn't really do much for the information I can see or not see in an
application. If some folks could please give me some pointers, I'd
appreciate it. For your information, I'm on a laptop keyboard, so I'm
going
to need laptop layout terminology. Thank you very much.
