Er... hi everyone. Hope this is in something resembling the right place to ask this. If not, feel free to tell me off in capital letters.
The short story:
Can anyone advise me on a good case for an HP mini 110 with a 6-cell battery?
The long story:
I've just bought an HP mini 110 (1110sa if that means anything to anyone), and it's new and shiny and wonderful and all those new laptop things. Accordingly, I want to protect it from damage and evil.
This is a problem - I bought it to take with me everywhere. As a student my desktop is a little too bulky to carry to the library, hence a small netbook. It'll be out and about most days with me on my bike, probably exposed somewhat to the elements.
What I want is a backpack with a decent compartment for a 10 inch netbook. These do not seem to exist; if anyone can point me to one (preferably for sale in the UK for less £40 or so) I'll be eternally grateful. The big problem is that I need to carry folders and textbooks with me as well, and most netbook bags proudly claim to be big enough for a magazine. Or a pen.
My next plan is to carry it in a regular backpack in a protective case - the Cool Bananas Hard Case is my current favourite. The problem is the 6-cell battery. I don't know if it will fit and I don't want to keep having to take it out. Does anyone know if it will? If not, any recommendations for a good case?
Thanks so muchYou're wonderful people.

For my HP Mini 5101, I'm using this bag:
Ultimateaddons 8.9-10.2 Netbook Shoulder Bag Case
It's well made and fits the 5101 with the 6-cell battery quite well. I can also pack a mouse, pens, my wallet and phone in the front pocket.
There is also a zippered pocket in the back that's big enough to carry some small paper documents (such as mail items).
Hope this helps.
