Sleeve/Case recommendations for a 10" Netbook

GSXRMovistar · 30 Dec 2008 at 23:09

I've got myself an Advent 4213 and I'm looking for a sleeve/case for it, nothing too bulky but would be prefer to get something a little more interesting than the usual black case found in the mainline high-street stores.

Can find plenty of them for larger laptops/macbooks but not smaller sizes, any ideas?

Thanks
Andy

Actually, a high street store might not be the worst place to look.

I bought a few sleeves on the internet before stumbling into the perfect case on the high street.

It's like a briefcase that opens from the side, has brilliant padding and has room for all my pruck (wireless mouse, charger etc) while still remaining tiny.

And it didn't cost me an arm and a leg.

That pic doesn't do it justice. I'll take some of mine tomorrow.

There's at least 1/2 an inch of padding.

Fully water resistant. I had water leak out of my backpack (while this was inside it (Yes I carry a backpack with this inside - it's that small)) and there was no evidence whatsoever.

£25.

More than sufficient, wouldn't you agree?

I picked up a case from a high street phone shop today, black/white colour looks fairly funky, snug fit and enough padding for my needs without being bulky.

Having to linked to a google cached page because server is down... but there's pics of a "Kroo" sleeve that looks good.

Deffo more of a second skin sleeve approach rather than a larger case, but perfect for slinging into another bag
