MSI WINDPAD 100W NOW AVAILABLE IN THE US FOR $710

MSI is yet to officially launch its Windpad 100W tablet in the US. Nevertheless, the machine is now available for purchase from Simply Electronics. The retailer sources its products from different parts of the world and very often offers products which aren't otherwise available in the US. Unfortunately that means you will end up paying a premium. The WindPad 100W, for instance, is selling for $709.95 in the US.

The MSI WindPad 100W has a 10.1 inch capacitive multitouch display with a resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels. It is powered by a 1.6GHz Intel Atom Z530 processor. Other specifications include 2GB of DDR2 memory, a 32GB SSD and a Windows 7 Home Premium.

The tablet has two cameras - one on the front and another on the back. It also has a G-sensor, ambient light sensor, an SD card reader, USB 2.0 port and an HDMI output. It measures about 0.7 inches and weighs about 1.8 pounds.
