MSI Wind U120 unboxed

Posted on 26 November 2008 by



The upcoming MSI Wind U120 has been unboxed over at MSI WIND en Español. The MSI U120 is very similar to the original MSI Wind U100 [Portal page], apart from the U120′s standard larger capacity battery, larger HDD (120GB), 3G option, and color. The unboxing video isn’t terribly exciting; it seems a bit confusing that the box says "MSI Notebook" and "Wind Netbook" [my emphasis] on the very same side of the box. Head over to MSI WIND en Español to read some Google translated first impressions and see the unboxing video below.

    Perhaps the labeling on the box is to indicate that the wind is produced by the “Notebook Division” and the Wind is a “Netbook”.

  2. Ben says:

    I understand that, but to someone who doesn’t recognize MSI as a brand (imagine a consumer in a store like Best Buy), I’m sure it could be confusing.

    Weird that they chose to copy the Acer Aspire One design.
