No. Nigel Herring in Sydney, whose services I highly recommend, is as far as I know the only technical specialist in Australia who has the expertise to work with the piezoelectric cell technology used in braille displays. > True, I guess it's not possible to clean with out pulling the device > apart?

One of the > dots is a bit low eg. it doesn't rise fully, so I dunno... :) I'm no expert, but it might just need cleaning. I don't know who handles the BrailleNote, but at some point you should probably have it serviced. These problems only get worse over time until it's all cleaned properly. My Brailliant 40 is having similar problems, as well as pins that stay up when they should be down - a strong indication that cleaning is becoming necessary. _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
