Posted on March 11th, 2010 by Ajay
The MSI Wind U160, which was showcased at January’s CES is finally available and shipping in the US via these online retailers:
- Amazon.com – Available for pre-order for $379.99
- Buy.com – $384.99 with Free Shipping, and ships within 1 to 2 business days as they have it in stock
- Newegg.com – $379.99 + $4.99 Standard shipping
The Wind U160 features a classy chassis that we quite like. It weighs in at a very light 2.4lbs and is an inch thick. This is all the more impressive when you take into account the 6-cell battery which MSI claims will deliver 15 hours of battery life. Some people dislike the chunky battery, but we feel its been integrated quite aesthetically.
