No, I don't have a braille display.  Why bother with all those Braille display 
problems? I primarily read emails and books.  Why haven't I bought a Braille 
Display? First of all they sell it to the customer, and it works for a while.  
Then the dots don't come up because of dust or something. At work we have 
braille displays, but I've seen this problem. What puzzles me is why a Braille 
display doesn't have a case or a cover, when those little things are so 
sensative? Why isn't there a way to clean it? One or two dots should not be a 
reason to send it back for maintenance. Customers pay a lot more for braille 
than just voice.  I won't buy your Braille Display until you resolve these 
issues.  Can I afford one? Probably when I want to.You'll have to clean up your 
act before I want to.  God help the deaf-blind who are depending on braille 
displays.
