this case if perfect fit for Toshiba nb205 with standard 6 cell battery netbook. Since Toshiba NB205 have battery stick out at back, normal 10 inches netbook sleeve won't be able to fit. This Toshiba netbook sleeve is specially made for NB205, it's perfect fit for NB205.

Title says it all. This case is well constructed with nice stitching and is soft and offers decent padding for your Toshiba NB205 netbook. I use it with a NB2050-N210 (the cheaper, black model) and it fits perfectly. Slide the netbook in, and flip the 'hood' over it for a nice snug fit. Originally I wished that it had a zipper instead of the 'hood,' but the non-zipper design is nice and solid. Over time, the hood may eventually get looser and loose its form (e.g. get floppy) but it seems to be holding up well so far. It was cheap on Amazon (fifteen bills) and a no-brainer since there aren't any other cases out there that will fit the NB205 perfectly like this case.

I recommend this case despite not being able to give it 5 stars. I wish it had a little more padding and I'm a little concerned the 'fold over' opening won't last over time but the laptop fits perfectly, it has adequate padding if you don't drop it from a bare handed standing carry and was decently priced. Besides, I have found no other case that fits this weird sized netbook.

This case fits my Toshiba Mini NB205-N311/W 10.1-Inch notebook perfectly. This case does not have enough room to store the power supply... but seeing as though the netbook has a 9+ hour battery life, I seldom need to carry it with me anyway!

The 10 inch Toshiba mini lap top fits perfectly in the sleeve, the envelope style closure with velcro makes for a secure closure.

Mine is nice, and it fits the Toshiba NB205 well, but after 2 weeks of light use there is already a hole near the flap big enough to fit one's pinky through.

First and foremost, I would generally recommend this product. The sleeve, like many laptop sleeves, are made of neoprene, though this sleeve is neoprene through and through - some of the more expensive sleeves might have an external ballistic nylon outer shell that in my experience, tends to wear better if accidentally grazed against hard objects. The internal side of this Toshiba sleeve is perfect for the NB205 series netbooks - as it's specifically designed for the NB205 series, it's made to fit the extended battery that Toshiba includes with their NB205 series netbooks.

One of the things I dislike about the sleeve is the way the flap is constructed. I've liked sleeves in the past where the flap folds down and is fastened with velcro on the main body of the sleeve itself. With this sleeve, you would have to slide 2/3 of the netbook into the sleeve first and then pull the flap up and over the remaining 1/3 of the netbook to cover it. It's fine now, but I feel like repeated tugging up and over of the flap would tear off the flap eventually. Nonetheless, I love the sleeve and the price can't be beat.

One other note: there's only enough space to fit the netbook - no space for power adapters/cables.

This netbook sleeve is a perfect fit for the Toshiba NB205-N310 netbook. No zipper, just a flap, but it works beautifully. I've heard that some other netbook sleeves won't work with the Toshiba because part of the netbook sticks out too far.

The Toshiba sleeve fits the netbook perfectly. A little snug putting it in the first time but once you get used to it it's a breeze. Lightweight and probably just enough padding for protection. I wouldn't want to drop it with the netbook in it, a much sturdier case would be necessary to protect it fully from a 3' drop.

Bottom line...like it and would recommend it.

Slide the Toshiba NB205 in and pull the top flap over, no velco or any other fasteners. Easy to use and well made.
