What is the shortcut to change out of the text tool?

This is something that has plagued me for a long time, and when our development team went to the Adobe Creative Suite Tour here in Indianapolis, I made it my mission to ask the presenters if they knew.

They didn’t, off the top of their head. But it lead me to try and figure it out, which for some odd reason had never crossed my mind.

When typing some text and you want to switch to a different tool;

Hold down control

Click away from the text you are typing somewhere off of an object.

This will give you the direct selection tool again and you can choose a different tool from there.
