MSI Wind U110 ECO Netbook Released in US

Tweet

Launched some months ago, MSI’s ultra-endurance Wind netbook, namely the MSI Wind U110 ECO, which boasts a battery life of up to a not unimpressive nine hours of endurance, has finally made it to the US.

In terms of specifications apart from its ultra-endurance 9-cell battery pack, the MSI Wind U110 ECO basically offers all that we’ve previously seen on the standard U110 though without dual storage capabilities (so you can forget the SSD) in coming with an Intel Atom Z530 CPU, Intel GMA500 graphics, 1GB RAM and a 160GB capacity hard drive under the hood whilst offering the same 10″ 1024 x 600 (WSVGA) resolution backlit display, webcam, 4-in-1 card reader and integrated wireless connectivity in the form of 802.11b/g (with Bluetooth and Draft N being optional extras).

It’s standard netbook fair, certainly, and therefore long since wholly unexciting but if you’re looking for a netbook for basic web surfing, mailing, instant messaging and the like that offers pretty impressive battery life that also won’t break the bank and (crucially) you’re not interesting in waiting for Intel’s up and coming newer Atom CPUs the MSI Wind U110 ECO will undoubtedly prove appealing.

MSI Wind U110 ECO Netbook has just been made available via Amazon for just shy of $400 though this appears to be sans optional Bluetooth and Draft N support (certainly there’s no mention of inclusion in the product run-down).
