Netbook Accessories

Postby nick s on Fri Mar 06, 2009 1:23 am

Hi there,

Hope I've placed this in the right section.

I've recently set up a website which I'm hoping to expand based on accessories for netbooks. I was just wondering what are some of the favourites that you may use and which you think help in using your netbook if at all.

Any comments appreciated.

Thanks.

Nick

I would probably guess that netbook cases has to be one of the most sought after netbook accessories.
After that probably batteries, memory, USB sticks, flash memory cards, skins, wireless/bluetooth mouse...
and a lot more I am sure I am not thinking of..

Hint to the Thrifty...

Look for those portable DVD player cases. I was able to snag 2 of those at an overstock store for under $10 bones. I have that's a Icon 9" portable DVD bag.

I paid $5 for that, chucked the dvd sleeve and I can fit my charger, cord and travel optical mouse there along with my 3 cell AAO my workbuddy keeps her 6 cell AAO there as well.

I also have a messanger bag like bigger bag that I have for my AAO. It's like 12" but has the foam sizers to shrink it to screen width. On that one I keep my AAO150, WACOM tablet and other gadgets.

I agree, I think bags and cases seem to be the first choice accessory.

Interesting to see that batteries are important too.

The site is up and running but its in it really early stages.
