The 12″ ZeroShock III Laptop and Netbook Case
- 1 Comment

Want something to protect your netbook that’s sleeker than a hard shell? The 12″ ZeroShock III softcover case is an interesting take on netbook sleeves, and may be the right one for you.
ZeroShock promises “Wavin’ Ravin’ Protective Gear”, and it’s hard to argue with that claim. The outside of this case is made from water-repelling polyurethane, enough to defend against a rainy day or accidentally spilled drink. Even if you spill something like juice or soda, the ZeroShock III’s smooth exterior won’t suffer from a wipedown with a wet rag.
The exterior also has a long pocket for cables, memory cards, or whatever other accessories you’d like to tote around.

Inside the case, you’ll find low rebound polyurethane. The material has a wave design and will protect against most low-intensity shocks.
The netbook case is 29 x 24 x 4 cm – in other words, designed for 12-inch devices. However, anything between 11 and 12-inches will fit fine, and that includes such netbooks as the 11.6-inch Acer Aspire One, the Gateway LT3103u, the ASUS Seashell, and the upcoming Samsung N510.
It’s not a fortress of safety like the Cool Bananas Hard Case, but your netbook or laptop certainly won’t get scratched in the ZeroShock III. The device is sleek and usable, and is a clever solution for those with larger netbooks.
You can buy it at GearZap.com with a 12 month warranty for £16.95 (or around $27.93 USD).
