$16 cover for Jetbook

tselling · 01-14-2010, 02:15 PM

I found a pretty good cover for the jetBook: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=380192216903

I slightly modified mine (I got rid of the pocket) to use it backwards from the intended way...

It is almost exactly the same size at the jetbook when closed. You can see in my photos that the zero button and the back button can be covered up, but pressing the strap over the button works fine. It can be bent around the back ok, but there is a bit of a crinkly sound around the spine area when doing it so not sure what is inside the case. It seems firm enough around the LCD though. The clasp is a magnet.

Except I don't like that one and its too much money. $16 shipped was pretty close to my limit.

tselling -

Great suggestion (and, I like the price, too)!

I wonder if the case is sufficiently thick to hold a JetBook Lite without bending the cover too much?

While I don't have a lite, I would say no it won't fit because it is barely big enough for the original jetbook.

Too bad.
Thanks for the quick answer!
