    Re: U.K. Owners

    I bought one A110 and two A150s. The A150s both came with the slip case, and the A110 didn't.

    I've ordered the A150 with XP so it's fingers crossed.

    Couldn't you have come up with a more helpful subject than "UK Owners?" I can.

    I got my Aspire one 110 from pcworld, buying online, but no slip-case was included in the box. I ended up buying a blue slipcase on Ebay from a Hong Kong seller for about £6.50

    My was from PC World and came with a slip case - but it's thin and will only prevent scratches.

    How long did it take to arrive and how would you rate it?

    Re: U.K. Owners

    Hi all, my A150L 512mb came from PCworld with a slipcase, as did my friends, he got his 1gig model from Amazon. The only difference being his opens along the long edge and mine opens along the short. Both black though.

    The slipcase arrived about 10 days after ordering it. The slipcase isn't much to look at, but it's a soft case made of high-quality polyester that's stretchable and claims to be water resistant (although I haven't tested that claim out yet :p ).

    Re: U.K. Owners

    I have had 3 (because of replacements)
    All A110
    All from PC World
    First was July 27th (samsung SSD) and had slip case.
    Second was about August 10th (samsung SSD) no slip case (and that really fucked me off because I was going to keep the original as a spare but didn't want them to say "you cant get a refund because its incomplete"
    Third was august 30th (intel SSD) and again no slip case

    So maybe the old batches of the A110 that were released before the A150 was released have them, but now the A150 is out the A110 doesn't have it anymore.

    Re: U.K. Owners

    My 8GB Linux One was from PC World via mail order as the local stores didn't have stock. No slipcase included and it has the Intel SSD.

    Been looking around for a case, probably want one of those neoprene/memory foam ones to offer better protection from any bumps. Deal Extreme have a couple of small ones, but they are designed for the Eee so will be a very snug fit for the One of they will stretch.

    You mean it's like one of those old betamax recorders?
