Case Logic has always been the case of choice for many whether they have desired to protect their CDs or, in this case, a mini netbook or netbook. Many on-the-go people take their netbooks with them to the library, their local coffee shop, and, of course when they travel. Many airports are now equipped with free Wi-Fi high speed access and you not only find the business people carrying their netbooks, but also people who want to stay connected on a layover. I have another sleeve I use, but Case Logic has one up on it in the protection department with the posh, thick quilted padding.
Accessibility: Clamshell
External Dimensions: 13 (width) x 9.75 (height) x 1.6" (depth)
Laptop Compartment: 11.5 (width) x 8.25 (height) x 1.5" (depth)
Fits: 9 - 11. 6" Netbooks
Material composition: Both the interior and exterior and 100% polyester.
PROS:
+ The padded clamshell design is shock resistant.
+ The internal stabilizing band will keep your netbook from shifting.
+ There is sufficient storage space inside for a power source if you are toting a mini netbook.
+ This attaché has sturdy, convenient, sewn in padded handles unlike many sleeves on the market.
+ Very durable with thick, reinforce seams.
CON:
* I always like to test anything I will be carrying media material in for water resistence. I placed it under the faucet and it soaked water up like a sponge. I was expecting the water to bead off, but was quite surprised at the rapid absorption of water. Simply keep in mind that if it is raining you may wish to place this in a plastic bag.
This case is an excellent quality case, especially if you are planning to travel. I especially liked the durability that can be both seen and felt. I have the black case that will not show stains as readily as the other colors. The only drawback is that it is not water resistant, but Case Logic makes no claims in this regard and I cannot take away from the rating I feel it deserves because of this. I simply needed to make people aware of this just in case they are thinking of taking their netbook out packed in this case during inclement weather. All in all, I'm quite pleased with this case and would highly recommend it to any on-the-go person looking for a durable, high quality case for their small netbook!
