MSI Tablet up in the line, confirmed by MSI itself
The Tablet should be the first to use the Pine-trail
MSI officially confirmed the MSI Wind tablet netbook coming in the form of the MSI Wind U150 soon - reports Gizmodo.
The main attraction of this tablet should be the processor – which is said to be the next generation Pine-trail from Intel. The Pine Trail platform will help to further drive down the cost of the netbook as it is said to lower the BOM (Bill of Material) cost significantly as it uses a two-chip configuration rather than the previously used three-chip configuration. According to the new configuration the memory controller and the graphics would be integrated on the same processor chip which was earlier built on a separate chipset (945GC/945GSE chipset in case of Atom processors using Intel Core Logic architecture). The advantage of using this new architecture is that the Pine Trail can run faster thereby increasing processor performance and graphics performance.
The Tablet should feature a 10” touchscreen, Window 7 but with no multi-touch feature. No words on availability because even the release time of Pine-trail is not clear.
