Interesting idea, but the bent lip on one side which I suppose makes inserting the laptop easier takes up more room in your briefcase, backpack etc. Also, the case is on the heavy side which diminishes the experience of having a featherweight netbook.

All that said, the darn thing's pretty strong, except for the edges.

This thing is great for setting your netbook on your lap, or anywhere but two things make it less than perfect: the bottom inch or so of both sides are exposed to open air (and dust/rain), and there's no snap or velcro strip to use that will keep the netbook from slipping out of the case if it's accidentally turned upside down. A velrco cover for the top opening would best, but just a strap to keep it in place would be nice. You have to be careful not to let the netbook slip out. But due to its shape it does grip the netbook a little. Still, I'd prefer the strength of a dedicated strap to keep accidents from happening.
If I lost this thing, I'd definitely buy another one though. It beats all the others out there just because of it's utility in making the "laptop" function so comfortable.

I would not call the handy little cover a "Case" since it doesn't hold the netbook as securely as I would like & does not have a cover on all sides. BUT it is so handy to hold the netbook on your lap or on a desk, I use it constantly. It looks good with my black Toshiba netbook and the lip keeps the netbook secure in use. I use it to keep the netbook secure in a suitcase rather than in a briefcase so it is fine. It doesn't have a place for the power cord or mouse but that is not a problem on a battery operated trip to the office or the coffee shop. If you have enough battery life, that is not a problem. Over-all, I'd buy another one in a minute.
