You should see the U120H MSI. It has built-in 3G / HSDPA router. Meaning even if there is no wi-fi spot, just put it your Globe / Smart SIM card and you have internet access ANYWHERE, ANYTIME....

After using the MSI Wind u100x for several months, I have come to the following conclusions: 1. Netbooks are practical and serve a useful purpose for those who move around a lot: they are good for your mobile computing needs. 2. I want my netbook to have 1024x768. The 1024x600 is just not good enough. For example, the [OK]/[Cancel] buttons do not show (and can not be scrolled to show) when making payments in the MyBDO personal internet banking webpage. Do the 168 additional lines cost so much more? 3. The six-cell battery is so heavy compared to the light plastic body of the Wind, so there is a tendency to get unlocked and fall out from its normal position. The cavity for the battery should be designed to "lock in" the battery so that it does not fall out too easily. 4. The 1.6GHz Atom (dual x86 processor) is good enough for most of my needs, but a faster one could do no harm for me. The faster they could make the processor, the better for me. 5. Could the manufacturer embed a metal chassis inside the plastic body (or a metal wire mesh). A sturdier body is good even for a netbook. Pablo P.S. I saw and touched the Sony VGN Z27, and have started dreaming that this is my next netbook, if only I can afford it.
