i second that......its not a fair gauge to use wireless@sg as a bench marker.

I have a different view on this wireless thingy.. as the WIND is meant to be "on-the-move", therefore it's essential to see itself connect without any problem to any whatsoever wireless hotspot etc.

I believe it is a rebrand. MSI does manufacture the Wind for other companies to rebrand, for example Medion, so its possible the Axioo is also a Wind rebadge.

Quality wise should be the same. Its supposed to be available for $690.

Ah... So now we know why there're so many problems with supply and also with the 6-cell...

Wasting time doing all this OEM manufacturing and re-badging for these 3rd party resellers...

I agree. That must be the reason for the shortages. One thing I don't understand is why MSI would want other companies to rebrand their products. I know some companies do that if they don't have a worldwide distribution channel, so allowing rebrands will get their products to countries they normally won't be able to.

Anyway I found another MSI Wind rebrand. This time its called the Advent 4211 and its sold in the EU.

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.
