Netbooks are crazy popular. Dan‘s recent, unsuccessful search, for one showed us that. I believe there might not have been a more popular gadget gift this holiday season.

Review: Bolt Bags Netbook Cases
Netbooks are tiny. Finding a stylish netbook case is difficult. You can generally find sleeves and some smaller bags but sleeves generally fit your netbook a bit tight to fit the power cord too.
