Hi, I agree with the suggestion raised about having power locks for keeping the machine switched off or switched on, but would also like locks for the thumb keys. There are occasions when I knock the up and down thumb keys when only wanting to use the left and right ones.
On a totally diffelent note, I'm having trouble with my cursor routing keys. They are either full of dust which even a cloth doesn't seem to unclog them or they need replacing but, I seem to have to lress really hard to get any reaction from them and that sometimes doesn't help. The way I can get around this, but it is tedious and slows me down, is to use the find search - I would much rather use the routing keys! It costs so much to repair and replace things on these machines and, we in the UK don't get Maintenance and Repair warranties like you do in the US! I only had the pins replaced about a year ago! Even though I am not in full time employment any more, I am a very heavy user each day of my BN 32. Another problem I have, and this maybe just me, is that I write very fast and sometimes the machine jumps either back to the beginning of a paragraph or to the beginning of the email. Can Pulsedata do anything to the machine's software or hardware to try to eradicate this please?
