Well, 2.5hrs battery life defeat the purpose of having an ultra mobile PC.

Perhaps have option of upgrade to 6 cell at additional cost?

Can chop the roberts in the pre order list. After they buy liao, hold a promo of the Wind at same price but with 6 cell battery. :evil:

Bros, you guys want to drop out of the pre-order list first? :D
Then I will 'chop' first...

We hope the sample will come this Sat. ;)

thx for the sarcasm.

at 1st u put 3hrs to 4hrs batt life for 3cell batt. now msi say its only 2.5hrs rated?
no real life batt tests for now yet, so i guess i will hold on to the spot until tests are conclusive.

if the test nor the offer is good, im sure there are ppl who will drop out. simply demand and supply eqn... dun ned to spite us out of it.

ur 'dun care' attitude seems to be the epitome of poor customer service, often observed in SLS..

That Atom is using Speedstep, hence it's multiplier drops to 6 while idle.

Not much of an issue, most laptops that I've seen have Speedstep as well. In fact, this should help us to save some battery power :D.

Anyway I'll be updating the first post with more information now that MSI Wind samples are already available in other countries.
