Got someone who is just a little but handy? We bought (from Wally-Mart) a set of 4 cup holders for auto windows. Screwed a small block of wood to the bottom side, so that the wood would hit the side of the chair, and keep it in the correct position. They come off easily, which is a good thing, as they will usually crash into one side of all the "gates", just makes the chair a tad too wide.

We hang one on each side, one for me, and one for my partner (in the chair).

Total cost? $1.99 for set of two (tossed the other two out) and about 15 minutes time.

You might be able to find one designed for attaching to children's bicycles in the sporting goods department of a store like Target, K Mart or Walmart.

We had a Minnie Mouse water bottle that we were able to attach to DD's wheelchair. The tubing on bikes and wheelchairs is usually a similar size.

We use stroller cup holders attached to the wheelchair.
