    Default What case do you use for your netbook?

    I'm currently using an old padfolio: a zippered paper-pad portfolio-type thing, fake leather, that has a nice internal pocket to hold my Aspire1. It works well, but I'm considering something different. Here are a couple of ideas:

    I've been looking at portable DVD player cases:

    WDEC-10 EVA Molded 10-Inch DVD Player Case



    Trademark DVD Player Case


    CASE LOGIC 10

    The DVD case looks best. It's possible that's just because It's very early here.
    Phone: LG "Feature" Phone
    Music Player: Sony Walkman 8Gb, Model NWZ-S544
    Camera: Casio 12 MP Digtial
    Tablet: Blackberry Playbook 16gb



    I'm not dead, just not here that often.

    I use a portable dvd player case for my eee. It's so small that it's smaller than the laptop sleeve for my macbook! (But a bit thicker).

    I second the dvd case idea, it works quite well.

    I use a CaseLogic DVD player case for my Eee as well. Good padding and enough room in the side pocket for the power supply and my portable HD.

    I got this one at Best Buy for $19.99. Made of waterproof foam padding, it's a perfect fit on the inside, with a velcro strap to secure the AAO and a large pocket on the outside (both sides) for holding the two pieces of the power cord.

    This is exactly what I'm using for the moment. In the internal pocket, there's room for my netbook and just enough space for the charging block and power cord. If it had handles, I think I'd be completely happy with it. For now, I stuff it into my day pack backpack, which holds the wireless mouse and Kensington security cable as well as a few bills to pay.

    I have used a hard-sided pistol case, but it doesn't hold everything I want to carry, so I'm using a Targus DVD case with lots of pockets.

    Like some others I use the Targus DVD player case I picked up at Wal-Mart for $15 for AAO.

    I'm using the case that came with my EEE.

    Retired Device: HTC EVO Shift 4G - (Rooted) JellyBelly ROM 4.1.2
    Tablet: Kindle Fire
