Would be nice if it had come with a manual. I'm enjoying looking at keys that have no meaning. The place where I bought it said my only option is to return it at my expense and pay shipping to get another one (hopefully with the manual included.) I have tried to find a website to download or read a manual, but haven't found one for this model. I went through this same thing with a Nikon camera. The manual was in Spanish. Never did get the English version, although I was promised one time and time again. I think companies can give lower prices because these bits are missing and they hope no one will complain. I did download almost 200 pages off the web for the camera, but do you want to carry that around when you are taking pictures compared to a booklet that is about 3 X 4 inches. Consequently, I rarely use the camera. The BOOK of instructions is at home when I have a problem. I think I'll start buying locally so that I can open the box and make sure all the parts are included. ( I have the MSI U100 -439US in white.) The MSI U100 is the FIRST laptop I have ever touched.

Hello, this is a UMPC, get it? As someone already mentioned, you'll not get any benefit from a 125Mb/sec connection coz the hdd is way slower, the CPU is not that fast etc. You'll better off to get a laptop if you want that! It's like trying to install an ATI 4870 X2 on a Celeron 800Mhz!!! LOL. Yawn_Me: SSD does not neccessary means faster or lower power consumption. Most review of the WIND shows that it has very fast boot up time, and the power consumption hours can already beat an EEPC currently. You can also read up the myth of SSD and low power consumption here: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/ssd-hdd-battery,1955.html For what it is, i believe the WIND hits the note with most people looking for something in this category. I'm seriously considering one. EEPC is out for me! I cannot help but laughed at the guy who complained about 1Gbit network and Wifi-n on this UMPC.

These delays might be a deal breaker for MSI if another similar netbook should pop on to the scene. MSI's site/store now shows AUGUST delivery for the 6 cell unit. : ( Argh!!!
