MSI Wind U120 coming in November to Asia

While the MSI Wind may already be considered a success in the local market, it is apparent that MSI is not content with just one netbook under their name as they’ve announced the Wind 2 set for a November debut in Asia.

MSI Wind2 coming in November

You can expect a new body design, SSD storage options, 3.5G modem, and of course, an Intel Atom processor. While the price is not yet definite and no exact figure has officially been given, rumor has it that it might cost roughly $600 or P28K. It’s really not that affordable, but hey, considering the Wind ranks as one of the top netbooks in the market today in sales as well as in performance, this second iteration might just be worth it.

If you’re on the hunt for a netbook that’s worth investing in, I would suggest you wait for the Wind 2 (U120) to arrive first before making any purchases at the moment. Besides, if you don’t like it, its presence in the local market will drive current prices down which will result in giving you a better deal in the end. Let’s just hope they stay true to the November release date so we won’t have to wait long for its availability. As for current MSI Wind owners, you can download the latest BIOS to get some added speed for your soon to be outdated netbook.
