I just got a 3000- How do you protect your AlphaSmart?

My lovely partner gave me a 3000 for my birthday today after I've been longing for one for a year now. It's so great. I love how smooth the keys are and how easy it is to use. I especially love that I can hook it up to a computer to use it as a regular computer keyboard!

However- how do I protect it when I go places? I want to bring it with me to classes and on trains (which I take a lot for commuting), but don't want to damage it in the meanwhile. How do you protect yours? I was thinking that a crossbody laptop case could be the go-to move.

Competitive speedtyping 2026/2027?

I've been slowly working to get a higher WPM and higher accuracy (~110 WPM and ~97% accuracy right now) and eventually want to participate in a speedtyping competition. Anyone know of any upcoming ones?

Heat advisory! Favorite places to go with AC?

It's going to be a hot one today and I don't have AC in my dinky little apartment. Where does everyone like to go for cold AC (and maybe something else, too?)

Edit: Decided to hop on the air conditioned bus for a while and enjoy the ride! Trip ended up with a stop for popsicles as well. Thanks everyone for the great suggestions, I'll be keeping them all in mind for this summer!
