If you have been holding out for a notebook that cost about the same as a netbook, but had a bit more power and a larger screen it may be time for you to buy. MSI has announced that the U210 is now available in America on both Newegg.com and Amazon.

The machine sells for about $473 and features a 12.1-inch HD screen with a native resolution of 1366 x 768. Graphics for the little notebook are via ATI Radeon X1250. MSI uses its slick EDS keyboard with keys 51% larger than those on a standard keyboard for better typing fell and ease of use.
