    I dont have mine yet, but I believe I read only the old 3 cell battery models have them. The new 6 cell models dont have the case :( Good thing I still have an extra one I bought for my old eee pc.

    I got one with my purchase, though I want to give a word of warning. It is good for keeping the machine clean from dirt, but for protection you may want to invest the extra ($15 and up depending on the manufacturer) and get a padded sleeve for your computer. When I purchased mine, I did not know the softcase was included and purchased a sleeve/case for it. I am glad I did. I can actually put the softcase onto the machine, and the sleeve case has just enough room for the sleeved machine plus a pocket for the external power source, usb keys, etc.

    My UK A110 3 cell came with a leather case but it doesn't fit over my 9 cell and it offers no real protection to the AAO anyway.

    No case was included with my AOA-150X from Amazon. I have several cases for the AAO as I like to dress it up a bit differently depending on where I am going. This is a very nice small case with a grip and a separate pouch for the adapter made by CaseLogic (it can be placed inside of other cases as well):

    I bought a couple of these from Curry's.

    Designed for an external hard disk.. but fits the Acer One perfectly. Cost £19.99
    Seems to protect it quite well and had room for the charger etc..

    Also bought a cheap USB mouse from Tesco - came with a retractable USB cable
    http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.100-1182.aspx not bad for £5.44 (slightly cheaper in store due to the VAT reduction)

    It also fit's in the case :)

    My A150 from John Lewis came with a soft case (also 160GB HDD). Bought just after Christmas with a November assembly date.

    Nope, mine did not have one. I bought the aforementioned caselogic bag - which gets a bit bulky with the power cord in it, but still works.

    I bought mine (the original caselogic one, exactly as posted) for E 20 in a normal shop. I have also seen similar bags from the brand "Ideastyle" (but without a front pocket) for just E 7,99.

    I bought it from a reseller on Amazon called AntOnline for $11.50 (excellent delivery speed) and they charged $6.50 for shipping I believe. I don't usually like CaseLogic stuff but this is a must have case for the AAO imho (for case collectors anyway). The 6 cell fits nicely with a little room to spare.

    Here it is.
