Century Netbook Stand Cools, Runs DVDs, and Adds Space To Netbooks
The Century Netbook Stand may just be the ultimate combination of netbook accessories – a cooler, bonus drive space, and a DVD SuperMultiDrive. Take a look:
The 260 x 190 x 19mm case has room for a 2.5 mm SATA HDD or SDD, which connect to the netbook through a USB 2.0 cable. It also addresses some USB issues, and adds two bonus USB ports on the side, for whatever other accessories you have.
Century’s netbook slice throws in a 4 cm fan for cooling purposes, and is available in Japan (sans HDD/SDD) for a mere $102.

Coolermaster Choixx Netbook Sleeve Released
The latest netbook cooling device on the market is the Coolermaster Choiix Ergonomic Metal Sleeve. Other netbook accessories have been more luxury-oriented, but it’s clear that netbooks can get pretty toasty when you’re milking your Atom CPU for all it’s worth.

A recent review by the Examiner is saying that it does its job extraordinarily well – it keeps your body heat from adding to the netbook’s when it’s sitting on your lap, and keeps it cool for normal use too. Though most netbook heating issues can be taken care of with stuff you probably have around your house, the new Choiix netbook Metal Sleeve is a cheap, easier alternative at a mere $34.99.
Be sure to check out the Examiner’s review here. We’ve also got a whole section on netbook accessories as well.
Coolpad Will Keep Your Netbook From Overheating
Nobody’s doubting that netbooks are getting big. CrunchGear, testifying to their sellability, likens their sales to those of “Tickle Me Elmos from past Christmases.” Apparently they’re big enough now for manufacturers to make netbook-specific devices, and this is where the Coolpad comes in.
If you think your netbook has been getting a bit hot, you aren’t alone. They do a lot of work for their small frames, and tend to overheat. Coolpad is a tool developed to help chill out your netbook, complete with integrated cooling fans. The device also comes with a 2.5-inch SATA HDD slot and 3 USB entry-ports, an excellent addition to the sparse offerings of most netbooks. We don’t know what it costs yet but it will be at GeekStuff4U.com on December 24th.
