MSI to launch WiMAX capable netbooks in India

Brad Linder — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 16:07:41 +0000

WiMAX may be in its infancy as far as mobile broadband internet services go, with just 2-million users around the globe, but that isn't stopping MSI from rolling out netbooks with built-in WiMAX modules. The first model to sport WiMAX capabilities will be a version of the 10 inch MSI Wind U120. The U120 with WiMAX will hit India starting...

Deal of the Day: MSI Wind U100 for $300

Brad Linder — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 17:54:12 +0000

Back in December I started to notice that the price on the original MSI Wind U100 with a 3 cell battery had fallen to around $300, but it wasn't clear whether this was a permanent price drop or just a holiday sale price. With several new models hitting the streets in 2009, it looks like the $300 MSI Wind U100...

MSI Wind U120 now available in charcoal/gray

Brad Linder — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 15:19:44 +0000

Sure, Dell offers its netbooks in "cherry red," "pretty pink" and with a variety of designer stickers, sometimes you want a netbook to look business-like. So MSI is adding a classy looking gray model to its MSI Wind U120 lineup. Which basically means you can get the netbook in gray or white. There's no black, pink, or purple option available...

MSI Wind U120 tops out at 1GB of RAM

Brad Linder — Sun, 25 Jan 2009 12:45:40 +0000

The MSI Wind U120 is a lot like the original MSI Wind U100. It ships with Windows XP, a 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 CPU, and 1GB of RAM. But while the Wind U100 accepts up to 2GB of RAM, it turns out there's no easy way to upgrade the RAM in the newer model. I've seen several different sets of...

Brad Linder — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 16:01:20 +0000

Several online retailers are taking preorders for the MSI Wind U120 netbook. The U120 is MSI's sequal to the MSI Wind U100, and to be honest, there aren't a ton of differences between the two products. The new computer adds support for 802.11draft-n wireless and a 6 cell battery appears to be standard on all models so far, while the...

Brad Linder — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 19:01:36 +0000

MSI plans to show off its updated line of netbooks and low power laptop and desktop computers at CES this week. To be honest, I'm not expecting many surprises.
