Hi Lisa: I have a feeling I know what you did, people I've done it a few times myself. Though the bn has a very fast response time with regard to Brailling, it still gets behind sometimes. And sometimes, on a freak accident, you will hit the combination of space, b, e, and y. This would take you into the block menu, hitting e for "erase", and y to confirm. I've done this at least three times and felt incredibly silly and thought I was the only one to ever make this mistake. Lol.
I agree with you that PDI should change something about this, whether it be the keystroke or possibly abandoning the whole thing altogether. I'm sorry this happened to you, but there's really nothing you can do unless you have a backup somewhere.
