As a tablet PC user who avoids the keyboard due to carpel tunnel and some other joint issues I wish there was another way to activate some of those key besides multiple key combinations on a more or less non-existent keyboard.

Most of the applications I produce would take no real benefit from access keys - they would not be used repetitively and so there would be little point learning them. As a touch-typist, I tend to avoid the mouse whenever possible (unless eating or drinking at the same time!) and have my personal Intranet set up with access keys so that I can get where I want to go fast. Similarly, a web-based contact management system that I wrote for a client makes use of access keys as the client may be using this day in, day out; learning the keys then makes sense as they make the system more usable for regular users.
