The first month of 2010 is going to see a TON of new netbook launches. One of these new netbooks will be the MSI U135 netbook. This Pine Trail machine sports a 10" WSVGA screen, a 6-cell battery, 250 GB HDD, 1 GB of DDR2 memory, and Windows 7 starter. The processor is an Intel Atom N450 1.6 GHz. You get this whole package along with a 1 year global warranty for $329.99. MSI brags that the U135 has a battery life of up to 7.5 hours. The U135 has a 1.3 MP webcam, a D-Sub port, 3 USB 2.0 ports and one 4x1 card reader. It weighs just 3.1 pounds. This new netbook will launch in "early 2010", which probably means sometime in mid-January with the rest of the first wave of Pine Trail launches.
