All I do to switch between desktops (8 of them) is use my scroll wheel on my mouse or ctrl tab (best way) or use the application button on the taskbar (one must add it). Its very easy. Which is why I think I've missed what David is trying to say?
I check the box for mouse-wheel switch too :)
What I was saying is that the key combinations proposed allow you to switch desktops *without* moving your hands from the keyboard to grab the mouse...
It's just a no-cost efficiency tweak that can improve Trinity for keyboard users while sticking true to the kde3 goal of most usefulness with minimum input. (and also providing equivalent keyboard access to mouse features :)

A keyboard only desktop switching already exists. The keyboard keys are Alt+tab, it brings up a menu showing the available desktop and running apps for each.
Unless you are unaware of the keyboard strokes to switch between desktops. I think perhaps a language barrier is in play here. Is that it?
