MSI’s much anticipated MSI Wind micro notebook, which is seem as one of the leading potential competitors to Asus’s Eee range of micro notebooks and which should have started shipping already (specifically from June 27) has been delayed on account of what MSI term as an ‘industry wide battery shortage’ (an issue that really out to have been foreseen as its been a concern for some while now) resulting in the official release date being put back to July 7.
Official MSI Mail to Pre-Order Customers:

We had hoped we would have begun shipping units by now, but have been unable to do so due to the industry wide battery shortage.

As estimated, the first shipment will arrive in the week of July 7 and we will upgrade your shipping to overnight service without any extra cost to you.

The delay is due to their waiting for a good time of MSI Wind to break the news that the announced price is without battery, drive, keyboard, motherboard and screen.
