We’ve already known that MSI is prepping its MSI Wind 2 models and it’s projected delivered date was previously reported to be in December.  We also knew from previous reports that it will have a built-in 3G module, 1GB of RAM, 120GB of HDD and will run on Windows XP.

But since, Asustek is already prepping up its own premier netbook, the Eee PC S101, this might have prompted MSI to release their second generation MSI Wind to as early as November. The said MSI Wind U120 shall retail for around $552.

In a related report, MSI was said to have no plans of coming up with their own touchscreen MSI Wind despite rumors that Asus is planning to come up with touchscreen versions of the Eee PC. This is due to the high cost of making such netbooks.

For MSI Wind fans who have been anticipating the release of the MSI Wind 2 since information about it started to surface a couple of days ago, Fudzilla managed to score exclusive photos of the said netbook in all its detailed glory.

According to Fudzilla’s exlusive report, the MSI Wind 2 would still sport a 10-inch screen although the design will be more formal than the previous MSI Wind models. Nothing much would really be changed with the Wind 2 in terms of features and specs. Some of these specs include:

• 10-inch display
• 120GB HDD with 20-40GB of SSD to follow later
• Intel Atom CPU similar to the Wind U100
• WiFi
• built-in 3G model with SIM card slot
• $600

The MSI Wind 2 is slated for release sometime in December. Head on to Fudzilla for more high-res photos of the MSI Wind 2.
