3.0 out of 5 stars Ok Netbook Case, October 29, 2009

(What's this?)

I have a Samsung NC10 and it came with just a cloth cover to protect it and I jumped at the chance to get this.

Like all the other reviewers I was very impressed with the overall build quality of the case. It has nice padding and should protect my netbook from bumps and bruises. I put the NC10 into its cloth cover and then insert it into this case and it fits well. The reversible flap is a nice idea but I could have done without it. It uses velcro and plastic hooks to secure the flap and eliminating them would have made things neater. I also wish the shoulder strap was removable but it is not.

My number one problem with this case is the lack of room for the power adapter. I could cram it in one of the pockets but it would be so tight against the netbook that I would be afraid that it would damage the netbook if there was any kind of impact to the adapter. The NC10 does not have a large power adapter either. So if you don't need to take your power adapter with you this is probably a near ideal case. If you need your power adapter and want to carry it in the same case as the netbook I would say look elsewhere.

(What's this?)

I have had my Brenthaven Switch Satchel for about a month now, and I love everything about it but it's esthetics. I didn't want it for it's looks, but wouldn't have minded it being all black or even a dark blue. The one thing outside of esthetic considerations that I would change is to either put in more powerful magnets on the flaps, or change to velcro fastners. The magnets aren't powerful enough to hold the flap in a significant windstorm. All that aside, this is a great way to transport and protect my netbook at the same time. I wouldn't sweat dropping my netbook from 3 feet (which is probably a greater fall than it would experience when it is slung over my shoulder) to the ground. As other reviews point out, this bag has plenty of stowage for cables and other things nice to carry around with a netbook. I keep a Western Digital Passport external hard drive, and a USB cable for my cell phone as well a miscellaneous things I might need at work, and all with leftover space. I thought well enough of this satchel to recommend it to the father of a co-worker who is receiving a Netbook for Christmas this year. He was concerned about her having something in which to carry her Netbook. I told him that while this isn't the cheapest possibility, it is the one I would recommend for it's ability to transport and protect the Netbook against an accidental collision with the ground. I highly recommend this satchel to anyone in need of a safe means of transporting their Netbook.
