With more and more Netbooks appearing by the day, it can be harder to tell one apart from the next.

Skinizi, a French company that makes skins for mobile devices such as laptops and iPhones, is getting in on the customization action with its newest set of skins for ultraportables including the Asus EeePC 70X, Asus EeePC 90X, and MSI Wind U100.

The skins should provide good protection against scratches and add a variety of visual effects, from avant garde to retro to cartoonish. You can choose from a collection of predesigned images, but unfortunately, you can't submit your own. For unlisted laptops, you can still find skins by providing the dimensions of the device.

All Skinizi's skins have graphics created by professional graphic designers and promise fast and easy application without air bubbles and easy removal without leaving marks on the device. You can get the skins now for about $35 apiece.
