MSI Wind

[allanzzz]

Saw at a Axioo roadshow at Vivo last night... Selling for $748, 3 cell batt 160GB HDD....
Speechless.....

izzit really a msi oem? have u seen a real msi wind ?

Of course while I would love to go down to Vivocity and place a Wind side by side with the Pico, I can't since I don't have a Wind myself.

Second best solution? Search online and compare pics.

Does that look like a Wind to you? Probably. Of course you would say we can't really trust their website, so I will leave it to you to decide.

When will be the white msi wind be avilable?

Are you speechless because its too expensive, or too cheap? I'm guessing too cheap, since its cheaper than the Wind, but with a 160GB HDD.

One thing it doesn't have is bluetooth, but not everybody needs it, and a bluetooth USB is pretty cheap.

I dun have a Wind, but based on impressions it does look very much similar.
Speechless cos if it really was an OEM, then software aside it would feel pretty pissed to have paid $800+ for the MSI version, whereas you would have gotten it for a much much cheaper price.

Of course I understand the pioneer batch of buyers may feel otherwise... I would have been one of them anyway if I were not holding out for the 6 cell...

Cant blame them....What is sg to them when they can earn more in others country

Think of the positive side.

1.As least corbell service is better.
2.I prefer to be label Msi instead of some unknown brand
3.Being the first batch of Msi user,you should know the price.

Support local company ma. They're selling for much cheaper. Just get a skin if you are that brand conscious.

i don't think so, this company only exists in south east Asia. although said to be international company...

 

[snipes14]

I support whichever company offers the best product at the lowest prices. Local companies can go screw themselves.

Back to stuff which actually matters, now that the 6 cell versions have begun to appear across the pond, could Corbell advise on the availability here?

 

[idiort]

cant wait for 6 cell on axxiooo and see their price

doody and guys, check with you guys something.

my friend says that nowadays the newer battery are built such that it will not be overcharged. i was wondering if this is valid.

if that is the cast i dun have to pluck out my msi wind's 3 cel battery?

thanks and regards.

I think it's been like that for quite a long time already. The batteries have a smart charging circuit that stops charging the battery once it's full.

1. I see you like to be blatantly over charged?
2. brand conscious may be good sometimes, but being stubborn is another thing, cos for msi-wind and wind-clones, underneath the casing, the inside are all the same. (same harddisk, ram, mainboard, lcd etc...same factory afterall!)
3. yeah first bacth of eeepc 1000h users also kena higher pricing.... but its offical... not distributor charging higher that retail pricing..(which is annouced worldwide)

2.So it a advantage for people who still deciding which to choose from.

3.Distributor wise....i still say the service was good.
