MSI U115 Hybrid Netbook Goes Live With SSD and HDD Drives Inside

MSI keeps delivering the goods, as the company officially launched the U115 netbook that we’ve already been talking about recently. The U115 Hybrid packs both SSD and HDD drives in one place and can handle them simultaneously, when the initial use goes with the SSD mode while the HDD drive stands mainly for storage, in order to save more battery power and increase the OS speed. In addition, it has a 10-inch 1024 x 600 display, 1.60GHz Intel Atom processo, a 2MP webcam, 4-in-1 card reader, up to 2GB of RAM, WiFi/Bluetooth connection and various storage combinations, including 8GB SSD / 80GB HDD, 16GB SSD / 120GB HDD, or 32GB SSD / 160GB HDD. Still, no word on price or availability but be sure they will be here shortly.

Update: Looks like the Wind U115 is finally up for sale in in the UK and Japan, priced around £450 – £500 ($675-$750), which is pretty expensive, no matter what specs it packs inside. Checkout the unboxing video from PortableMonkey after the break.
