The netbook is poised to revolutionise the laptop industry. Laptops freed computer users from their homes and offices, and netbooks with accessories will free them from almost every restraint. Knowing what accessories are available for netbooks will help you start to free yourself today.

Batteries
Netbooks are unique because they are so small, and the reduction of size leads to less power usage. In fact, many people buy netbooks specifically for their lowered power usage. So, one of the most popular accessories is an extra battery.
Because netbooks are so small, their batteries are tiny. Some batteries are barely six inches long, and are so light that they wouldn't be noticed in a briefcase or backpack. Having an arsenal of backup batteries for your netbook could eliminate the need for finding power sources for days.
However, recharging each of those batteries one at a time could be frustrating.
