That is very unusual. Over what time period has this been? It sounds like one of the very early units.

My orbit has had to be fixed at least four times: Missing dots. Bad motor. Dots staying up even when machine is off. Inability to turn machine on. Probably have spent more fixing it than it cost in the first place!

Ali, Orbit Research will be releasing a 40 cell display very soon. Their 20 cell is quite good. The 40 will cost about $1400. Freedom Scientific sells their Focus 40 5th jeneration display for around $2800. Humanware and The American Printing House for the blind have released their Mantis 40 cell display that has a TWERTY Keyboard instead of a braille keyboard for around $2500. HIMS has the QBraille 40 that I believe is about $3200. I hope that helps you get started.
