Netbook Sales on the Rise, Customize Yours With a Custom Skin from MyTego.com

Winnipeg, MB – Consumers around the world all have the same generic portable electronic devices. It is no longer enough to own the latest hottest device because it will not take long before customers are surrounded by a sea of similar looking devices. Netbooks have been gaining popularity since a Taiwan manufacturer first released the Asus EeePC and MyTego is now creating unique skins for these lightweight portable devices.

MyTego.com is adding Netbook templates to their already extensive device selection online.  Netbook sales are on the rise stealing a 7 percent share of the global laptop market in their first year and this number is expected to rise to 12 percent for their second year.  While these small laptops were originally designed as a cheap alternative to a laptop for lower income families, they have become immensely popular among businesspeople as they are lighter and much easier to carry around than a standard laptop.

Netbooks are used mostly for online activities, basic word processing and other simple activities.  They are not used for storing large amounts of data but rather for accessing documents and pictures that have been saved online.  Netbooks generally have screen sizes between 6 and 10 inches and weigh between 2 and 3 pounds.  Most of these mini laptops sell for a price between $300 and $600, and sales in Europe have been 8 times the sales in the United States.  One of the more popular Netbooks is the Acer Aspire One weighing in at just over 2 pounds.

MyTego is now adding many different Netbook templates so customers can design custom vinyl Tego skins for their mini laptops.  Tego skins are low-profile, protective skins that are designed specifically by each individual customer.  Tego skins go on easy and come off clean so that they will not ruin the customer’s device and also allow customers to keep up to date with fast-changing trends.  The device will remain fully functional with specific cutouts for screens, buttons and cut lines leaving full access to the battery.  Prices start at $13, including shipping, for cell phone skins and $28 for laptop skins.  MyTego also has skins for game consoles, such as the Sony PlayStation 3, or other gadgets like the Amazon Kindle and most other portable electronic gadgets and devices.  Orders are usually printed within 5 days of placing the order, sometimes within 48 hours, and shipping times range from a couple days to a couple weeks, depending on what the customer chooses.  Rush shipping is available on all orders for an extra cost.

MyTego has a number of netbooks on their website already and will continue to add more as more models are released.  If a customer does not see their netbook on the site, they can email MyTego from their website to request the device.  The following is a list of netbooks that are currently on the site:

·         Dell Inspiron Mini 9
