As a frequent user of the Gmail mobile application for my Blackberry I find myself constantly accessing the help menu to view the shortcut keys and try to skip the menus in Gmail. I was quickly annoyed with the back and forth and decided to create a credit card sized cheat sheet with all the shortcuts. For a while the easy to access shortcut card solved the issue of back and forth between messages and the help menu, however I grew tired of pulling the card out of my wallet and decided to create a larger format of the shortcut keys to put on a cork board.

When I was done with the poster I found it so useful that I decided to publish it here for everyone to use. In the mean time I’ll be working on similar shortcut posters for other Blackberry applications that I often use (Gtalk, Blackberry Messenger, Google Maps, Opera Browser, and others). If you have any suggestions for posters or tips to share, please post them below.

Note: I also included the original wallet sized shortcut list.
