Hmm, that's weird. My space bar has never gotten stuck before.
I've never had to send my unit in because of my space bar.
Although, my braille displays have been going, so I've had to
switch my Braillenotes three times. It's been pretty annoying.

You must use computer braille in a Word file, or any file that is
not keyword braille or .brf.
Emails are viewed in computer braille, but you can write in grade
2 if that is your default.
My spacebar is okay, but this is my second machine; my first
mpower's spacebar kept leaning to one side and would get stuck,
making the machine unusable. I sent it in three times, and once
they even replaced the keybodar, and when I got it back and still
had that same spacebar problem they finally replaced the entire
braillenote with a new one. Now, though, my spacebar is not as
responsive, and if I hit on the right side (I always use my right
thumb) it usually, though not always, registers. The center is
better, but my thumb just does not rest there so I cannot hit it
there. This is just my experience; I have not heard of anyone
else having these problems, except a couple people who had the
sticking spacebar issue, but they seem to have gotten it fixed.
Have a great day,
Alex

Hello everyone,
I am thinking of changing from a QT to a BT for my MPower. I was
wondering when you type in a Word document using the BT, can you
type in grade 2 Braille? Also, what grade do you type in when you
send email using the BT?
The spacebar on my QT is horrible. I have to make a conscious
effort to really type in the centre, otherwise the space bar
wouldn't move. Does anyone with a QT have the same problem? A
Humanware tech suggested it may be because my machine is old.
So I am debating whether to have them fixed the spacebar or
swapping from a QT to a BT.
I would really love to hear any suggestions that anyone might
have.
Cheers,
Quyn
