Seeing as how competition in the 10-inch netbook market is heating up and its U120 model isn't something to turn much heads, MSI has decided on releasing a new Wind model, the U123. Still coming with a 10-inch screen boasting a top resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels, the U123 will feature the fresh 1.66 GHz Atom N280 CPU, 1GB of RAM and support for 2GB, and most likely a 160GB hard drive.

The Wind U123 will be available in four colors - black, white, red and blue, and with either a 6- or 9-cell battery. Hopefully MSI will price the new machine just right as the U100 deserves a worthy successor.
