    Or something you'd find in a laundromat?

    Re: U.K. Owners


    is it good? do you recommend it?

    and off topic, has anyone noticed that all tests so far I've seen have single row enter button on the keyboard and my aa1 from amazon has double height enter? strange...

    I received no slip case with my A110ab from Currys. However Carphone Warehouse have an Elonex neoprene case which fits the One perfectly for a mere £8.99 and available in a choice of Black or Pink.

    :D

    Re: U.K. Owners

    Yes, I'm quite happy with the slipcase -- it seems to be similar to the case provided with the Asus Eee 901, only custom-made for the Aspire One. The slipcase will definitely protect your machine against bumps and scratches. There's no room for the power supply, though -- but that's obvious, I guess. :p Plus the makers claim it'll even accommodate an Aspire One with a 6 cell battery fitted, although I haven't tried that (not that I plan on buying a 6 cell battery ;) )

    ah excellent! I cant find a case anywhere so this sounds promising! is the Elonex one bulky? I need to be able to fit the aspire one plus slip the case inside a messenger bag (also known as a "man-bag" apparently!)

    Re: U.K. Owners

    It is not bulky,very similar to the one posted by jcm above but has an extra zipped compartment on one side in which I can get my mini mouse, earphones and expansys travel charger. As it is neoprene it will protect it from minor knocks and drops and it also looks as if it has just enough room for the six cell battery. I often then transport it in my laptop case where it takes up half the room. :lol:

    CPW are selling them as an extra in conjunction with their netbook offer.

    Bought one from pc world. Blue, thick neoprene 10" version by case logic. Side pocket for mini mouse and enough room inside for a card divider so you can put the charger in too and not scratch the lid. £20 with a 1 GB usb flash thrown in. goes under the label " Portable DVD carry case"

    Nope. Mains cable is too bulky and heavy, which is why I got a better charger/psu for travel purposes.

    No I didn't :(
    But I have a blue A4 plastic folder with bits of paper in, and I put the AA1 (110) in it as well.

    i bought the A150L from play.com.

    it included a slip-case.


    a friend of mine bought the A110L from currys and there was none.
