Zeroshock III Notebook Sleeve Review

[Jaycee8980]

The Foam does depress I would say 1/4". Give it a try definately worth it. To be truthful, the Sager NP8660 has an abnormally big back end and you would encounter the same issue in most sleeves not made of cheap stretchy neoprene...

think I should go for the 15.4 or the 17?

15.4" definately

It SHOULD fit.

I just ordered a sony fw and am considering getting this sleeve- unfortunately the fw is sort of between the sizes. Compared to the 15.4" sleeve's dimensions of W14.8 x D1.6 x H10.8 inch, the fw has dimensions of 15.1 x 1.46-1.3 x 10.3. I'm going to assume that that .3 difference in the width is going to be insurmountable.

On the other hand, I'm worried the 17" sleeve will be too loose. In another thread on the Sony forum I heard from one user that it still gave decent support but was a bit loose, enough so that he could hold the sleeve by the loose part to carry it around. This obviously makes me worry that this sleeve isn't tight enough to offer any real protection.

Does anyone have any recommendations or thoughts based on their experience with this sleeve? Will it still provide a decent amount of padding if it's loose? It seems really nice which is why I'm still considering it even though it might not be a great fit. Of course, if anyone owns an fw and this sleeve I would greatly appreciate any feedback. Thanks.

I took the dive and got the 11.1" black one for my EEE 1000H, My wife really likes the leather cover/sleeve/case deal I ordered so I think I will give that to her and use the zeroshock myself because I can take just the sleeve when I need just the netbook, but toss it in my bag with my headphones & mouse and stuff when I feel like taking the family of accesories with me.

The 30% cash back deal was what really made me go for it tho. I suppose since your limited it 6 times I should save it for some high dollar items like ... been tempted to get a 4870X2 for my desktop.... but even tho the more you spend the more you save, you have to have the money to spend in the first place...

Amazon has a good deal on the Zeroshock III? Surprising.

Vicious, glad you like the case. Its great for the Asus 1000H. I havent dropped it yet, but I do use it as standalone protection for my EEE every day at school. Its easier to hold with books then in my backpack

No. They don't even sell Zeroshock III. Try searching for it.

I just ordered the Zeroshock 10" orange for my Blue Acer Aspire One.

I checked out Amazon after reading that post. I don't which Amazon they were looking at LOL, but the Amazon I was looking at had a couple of Zeroshock sleeves at about 60 bucks a piece!
