Hi,
We use skip links even if a page is marked up with landmarks because they work best for people with motor disabilities. Personally, I usually try to hit the number 1 when a page loads. I'm a screen reader user. I never hit the skip link if there is one, because that causes so much chatter that it takes too long to figure out where I am once the verbalization settles down. That, and sometimes skip links don't work even though they are there.
