I use the mappings

nmap <TAB> <C-W>
nmap <TAB><TAB> <C-W><C-W>

this makes the movement between windows very convenient (tab + hjkl) but also other window operations (close (c), quit (q), only (o), top (t), bottom (b), previous (p)). The list goes on...

Of course if you do this you lose the ability of going back after using a <ctrl-o> jump.
For that I have a command
command! -count=1 Jump exe ":norm! <count>\<C-I>"

so if I use ctrl-o I can use :Jump and go back.
if you use <c-i> a lot you could define a mapping say ,i to act as <c-i>.

Jorge
