MSI Wind 2
The Wind hasn’t been around for that long but the latest news shows that MSI are keen to dig even deeper into the lucrative netbook market. The folks over at EnGadget have posted an article which suggests that the Wind U120 will be arriving in November. On top of that, the U100 will soon be available from a “large national retailer,” - no specifics here as yet. And, as you’d expect, the Wind U120 (Wind 2 as it’s been called) will hit the US first - you’d never believe they used to be one of OUR colonies ;).
Director of US sales for MSI has stated that the Wind 2 will feature “a whole new look,”. Some of the specs already in the wild include new HDD / SSD options and inbuilt 3.5G WWAN connectivity for under $600. There’s no news on a UK price yet but I reckon it’ll come in at around £450 (based on the specs we already know).
Yesterday we posted an article regarding the forthcoming Eee PC S101 which should make a formidable sparring partner for MSI.
