Adding to the multiple ways to switch spaces: here's a way to do it with just Blacktree's Quicksilver, without running any (other) third party apps.
- In the Spaces control panel, set control-number keys to switch directly to a space.
- Add a Quicksilver trigger, with this text (type dot and then this text): tell application "System Events" to keystroke (ASCII character 49) using control down
- Set the action as "Run as AppleScript"
- Set the trigger to use a keypress, then (you might have to hit the (i) icon to get the sidebar to pop out) set it to F1, and make sure you set it to activate on release.
- F1 should now jump to space 1.
[robg adds: From the queue review site, a commenter notes that you don't have to use the ASCII values; you can just use ...keystroke "1".... I haven't tested this hint.]
