The chairs have round smooth backs, so it wouldn't stay on. As far as putting it under my chair goes, I would make sure it was where no one could step on it.
Honestly, though, I would recommend keeping it away from food and drink. There is no reason why you need to take it with you everywhere. Put it in your locker or leave it in your office or put it in the drawer of your desk when you eat lunch. Having it with you isn't worth the risk of spilling something on it. That's why I never take it to the dining room.
I don't understand why anyone would continually spill drinks on their unit. Don't you want to take care of it or do you have limitless money to repair it? I can understand one mistake, but the person who has spilled drinks on it more than once is extremely careless and foolish!

Put it on to the back of your chair with the strap on the bag. ----- Original Message ----- From: johnnie Jean duran <johnniejduran@xxxxxxxxx To: Terri Pannett <pann1@xxxxxxxxxxx Date sent: Fri, 15 Nov 2013 14:39:05 -0700 Subject: [BNU] Re: Braille Display Question Thank you, It was pretty far from food, but a little advice to y'all... Do NOT put it under your chair, because it will/can be stepped on or something could fall on it.

In a word, though, it won't be cheap (okay, that was more than one word).

As far as I was aware of, the braillenote did not get wet, just me. I clean the mess up, and attended the rest of my classes without any problems. When I got home, my braillenote's braille display seemed weird. 6 of my cells were covered with lower looking xxxxxx. I tried resetting, exercising my braille display, and things like that, but the dots remained there. This makes it very difficult for me to read, and I am aware that I will have to send it in. How much does it cost per cell to get fixed, and, is there anyway I can make this accessible until I send it in (without using speech)? Help is always appreciated!
