What are the DS keyboard shortcuts that you tend to use the most or

I'd say I end up using most often:
"F2" for the floating fx pallette
"Z + click" for the Zoom tool (everywhere)
"X + click" for the Pan tool (everywhere)

"Z+X+click" for restore Zoom/Pan in viewers
Various combinations of "Ctrl, Shift, keypad minus, keypad plus" for
Zooming in and out on the timeline
"Ctrl + B" to bypass effects in trees and timelines (bless you dev
team)

same with CTL-B, but that's about it.. the keyboard get pretty dusty

The tablet is the only way to go. The only thing I've never figured out
how to do with the tablet is a "right click+drag" that I sometimes use
when moving files (instead of copying) between folders.

Try hovering the pen while right clicking and drag.

There are times when Ctrl+Z would be handy in real life too.

Without a doubt:
[ and ] ( and Ctrl+[ and Ctrl+] ) for slipping/moving things around..
Best. Shortcuts. EVAR!
Navigation for me gets used heavily... besides pan/zoom, I do a lot of
I and O for marking ins/outs, Shift+I and Shift+O for goto in/out, and
Ctrl+Shift+I/Ctrl+Shift+O for clearing ins/outs. / for 'mark selection',
\ for match frame.
Some of those aren't default I don't think, but I really can't remember
anymore as I've remapped things over time.
