MSI Wind U160DX is coming. MSI is going to announce its new netbook U160DX, which has 15 hours battery life, at the Computex 2010. This netbook is the updated version of MSI 160 but of course there are a few changes except from its appearance.

However its other features seems altered. The U160DX will have a new Intel Atom N455 processor, some DDR3 memory and 15 hours of huge battery life.

There is no word about the price of this new netbook, but it seems that we will talk more about this netbook due to its huge battery life. So, keep tuned for more info!:)

Netbook Choice dot com has unboxed the MSI Wind U135 and here is the video. It seems that Wind U135 is pretty good, especially in terms of view. However, 3 hours battery life is less for a netbook. Additionally, although it is not available for the sale, still you can pre-order it from amazon.com It is just $309.

Here is the list of specifications of MSI Wind U135

• 1.66GHz Intel N450 Atom Processor
• 1GB DDR2 667 Mhz SO-DIMM RAM (1 Slot) upgradable to 2 GB MAX
• 160GB 2.5-Inch SATA Hard Drive, Wireless 802.11 b/g/n, 4-1 Card Read (XD/SD/MMC/ MS)
• 10″ 1024×600 LCD Display; 1.3MP Webcam
• Window 7 Starter; 3 Cell Battery (3 Hours of Battery Life)

You can pre – order it from Amazon.com

Yesterday, two more MSI Wind netbooks have been spotted in FCC filings. The model numbers are MS-1243 and MS-1241 are based on AMD’s Yukon platform and feature AMD’s Athlon Neo processor. The models include a 12.1″ screen as well as an 11.6″ version. Here are the specs from what we can gather:

• Weight: 3lbs
• 12.1″ display (or 11.6″ depending on model)
• 1.3MP webcam
• 3G WAN
• Bluetooth
• WiFi b/g/n
• multi card reader
• VGA out
• HDMI out

The OS is not named but we can assume it will run on Windows 7 since XP is in the process of being phased out by manufacturers.

The graphics card is an integrated UMA model, but with an included HDMI output we can assume it will not have a problem outputting HD video. Another interesting option is the integrated TV tuner module.

MSI has affirmed rumours that they are manufacturing a Pine Trail-Packing convertible touchscreen netbook.Anticipated to first appearance at CES 2010 the MSI Wind U150 will compete with Asus Eee PC T91. The U150 won’t alone house Intel’s coming Pine Trail platform, however it will operate Microsoft’s new operating system Windows 7.

On the other hand, word has it that the U150 may not make use of Windows 7′s multitouch functionality. The netbook purportedly uses a resistive instead of a capacitive touchscreen. SlashGear notes that the conclusion is probably an effort to keep prices down. Although that’s still a year away, MSI recently declared that it would introduce an AMD-based version of their Wind U200.
The two disclosed U210 sub-models will feature similar specs. The U210-002 sports a 12.1″ display, an AMD Athlon Neo MV-40 1.6GHz, 1GB of RAM, an ATI Mobility Radeon X1250, a 160GB HDD, and Windows XP. The U210-010 kicks it up a notch with 2GB of RAM, a 250GB HDD, and Vista. The former will ship for about $570, and the latter $642.

The MSI Wind U210, the AMD-powered version of the CULV-based Wind U200, was only revealed last calendar week, but Pierre over at Blogeee has already gone hands-on. The MSI Wind U210 is a 12.1-inch mini-notebook that comes with an AMD Neo processor.
The Wind U210 features;

• a 12.1-inch (1366 x 768) LED backlit display
• a 1.6GHZ MV40 processor
• ATi Radeon X1250 graphics
• 2GB RAM
• 160GB or250GB storage space
• 6-cell battery
• HDMI-out

Pierre gives us a comprehensive view at the U210 and he also compares it to a 10-inch Wind U100. He also managed to fit the U100 battery into the U210 with success. It does have a glossy lid, but is not as much of a fingerprint magnet as other models. Another positive note is that the bottom panel easily enable you to advance component parts. Watch the below unboxing video of Pierre.

MSI has already revealed the 12.1-inch Wind U200 CULV-based netbook. But, it looks like MSI is releasing a associate netbook dubbed the Wind U210 that is going to be powered with an AMD Neo processor. The feature set looks to remain the same apart from the AMD internals.

Especially, it is going to ship with an AMD Athlon X2 MV40 processor, 2GB RAM and a 250GB SATA HDD. It is also going to go with Windows Vista Home Premium. It is going to be available in both black and gray and cost €449 in mainland EU. A cheaper SKU is also awaited that will ship with Windows XP and have 1GB RAM and a 160GB HDD and cost €399. There is no rumour about a United Kingdom price or shipping date right now.
The standard Wind U200 comes with a 1.2GHz Intel Celeron M Processor ULV 723, Intel GS45 chipset and Intel GMA 4500M graphics. It features a 12.1-inch high-resolution (1366 x 768) display.
