http://gizmodo.com/365720/msi-wind-laptop-to-make-eee-pc-cry-eeekCheckout the latest entrant in the UMPC race, the MSI Wind, which we missed at
CeBITearlier last week. Toting a 10-inch display, Intel Shelton'08 platform,
with variable processor speeds from 1.0GHz - 1.6GHz; 2.5-inch HDD or
SSD, 1GB RAM, a
reported 7-hour battery life and running either Linux or Windows operating systems, it seems MSI's offering holds a lot of promise.
As we have yet to see an active screen shot from the MSI Wind we expect
that it is still at prototype stage, but that has not stopped MSI
churning out blue, silver and pink iterations. The styling is certainly
a step up from the Eee PC, but perhaps
that Eee body reworkwe heard about earlier will throw off the new competition. The Wind is
expected to be priced between €299 ($458) - €699 ($1072), depending on
options chosen. All in all, the sizable keyboard, price point and
decent display size have our attention for sure. There is no word on a
Battery 7hr!!!!
