Body Glove cases
£21.99


Pros
Mmmm...Neoprene
Cons
Dull design
Verdict
Hard-wearing, well priced and very tactile
Editors’ Rating
7/10

Since everything needs a fancy name, this isn't just another case designed to keep your Palm or Pocket PC safe and sound. No, it's a 'data suit', fashioned from Neoprene -- the material favoured by divers for its toughness and flexibility. Neoprene’s also highly stain-resistant, shrugs off water and won't fade in sunlight.

The Universal cases featured here come in either a book style (which unsurprisingly opens like a book) or a top style, which opens like a reporter's ring-bound notepad and offers marginally more space inside. Both have a large Velcro hook pad and a smaller, removable sticky-backed loop pad. Fix that on the back of your handheld, press it firmly into the case and the result is a snug and secure fit. There's a pocket on the other side of the case for spare SD, CF cards and other similarly small handheld-related items and a good strong zip to keep everything together.

Put simply, what is the compelling reason to pay ~$200 extra for an Eee with Windows XP? A Windows Eee won't come with any useful applications and you'll have to buy anti-virus software to boot. The truth about low cost computing is that nobody really cares whether the machine is running Windows or Linux as long as its cheap, its easy to use and it works.
