I quite like the simplicity of the zeroshock III case and i was wondering if it snugglys fits the nc10 inside without it being loose considering it is titled for 11.1 inch laptops :S You guys reckon if you could upload some pictures of your nc10 inside one of these 😀*EDIT* i have found the 10.4 inch one 😀 http://shinza.com/product_info.php?cPath=5_10_15&products_id=78
[/quote1227578752]The shock absorbing material inside the case sort of molds to whatever is being carried inside. My NC10 doesn’t feel like it’s moving around in it, it’s quite snug really.

I just checked out the dimensions of that case, and it is a 31 mm short in width. The height and length seem ok though, but I don’t know whether the NC10 would fit. I bought the 11″ version as it would fit the NC10 better in my opinion.Has anyone bought the Tech Air 10″ case from PC WOrld / Currys ? I went to look at it last night and looks great with plenty of room for PSU etc but as they did not have an NC10 instore I could not be certain in fits in the bag ok .
So has anyone bought one and if so does it fit ok ?

I will buy it online if it fits as is £5 cheaper and can still arrange to collect from store.

I bought this case from Amazon.com and have been happy with it. It has a zippered external pouch where I stash a small retractable wired USB mouse and my USB Sprint Broadband modem; also handles: Caselogic LNEO-10 Ultra-Portable Neoprene Notebook Sleeve ($12 for Black)

[/quote1227706245]I just bought this bag and the NC10 fits fine with wireless mouse. I don’t have my power cable and adaptor with me to test if that fits but I’m sure it will. Quality of the bag appears pretty good with padding and a secure strap for the central section where the NC10 fits.
Lots of confusion as to pricing in PCWorld, it was labelled as £29.99, scanned at £19.99 and shows on the web-site as £14.99 for in-store collection. The staff were quite helpful and we found that some of the bags did scan as £14.99, the PC World product code to ask for is 206920.

Here’s a thread for discussing bags, cases, hand-knitted covers and generally things to put your NC10 in.I’m not really convinced by the slipcase my NC10 came with. Scratch proof, yes, but not exactly the best shock protection.
So I’ve splashed out on this neoprene slipcase:
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.14660
At £3.70 including postage, it should be a bargain. I’ll update you when it arrives to let you know whether it fits snugly and is adequately shockproof.
[/quote1227712606]did you have to pay customs duty or VAT or any other charges to ship this to the UK?
Thanks[quote1227716151=ramdiane]

I ordered the smaller version of the same case.
Should make for a tighter fit.
It’s even cheaper too.ramdiane: My experiences in ordering from dealextreme are that no customs duty or VAT is charged. Keep in mind that I live in the Netherlands though.

However, I can’t find any UK suppliers. Does anyone know where you can get this bag in the UK?
i honestly think you guys are actually mental to want to put somehting like this in a soft case like that.
this is the way it should be done.
