There’s going to be a steady stream of these announcements, so might as well get ready for them. MSI, following closely on the heels of Dell, has announced it too will be manufacturing netbooks with new Intel “Pine Trail” Atom processor.
MSI’s offerings, the Wind U130 and the Wind U135, will use the N450 processor. The N450 is designed to be more energy efficient, and promises to extend battery life by about 15 percent. Each netbook will come with a 1024 x 600, 10-inch LED backlight screen, 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 3.5G WiMax, stereo speakers, and a 1.3 megapixel webcam. The U130 will have a 160GB hard drive; the U135 a 250 GB hard drive.
These two netbooks will be on sale in January. Gizomodo is reporting prices for the UK market of £229 and £279 respective. (That’s about $370 and $450.)
