Hi all,
I, too, set my speakable objects key to f10, restarted the mac, and now it is 
working. Here's what I discovered so far:
"switch to [app name]" will switch you to an app, provided that app is already 
running.
"open [app name]" will open an app not already open, including third-party apps 
you install, not just the ones the mac comes with.
"what time is it" will speak the current time.
"what's today's date" will speak the date
"quit this application" will close the currently focused app; "hide this 
application" does the same but minimizes it
There are more commands which you can get to by saying "show me what to say". 
Interact with the table, then interact with the item you want. VO-right to the 
"collapsed" item and vo-space on it to expand, then stop interacting and move 
right until you get to the commands list. If nothing else, I love the time and 
app focusing commands. Also, in the preferences dialog for speakable items, you 
can enable front window, which lets you speak the name of a control in the 
currently focused window to be activated or switched to, I'm not sure how that 
works yet.



Have a great day,
