The Medion Akoya Mini is basically the same computer as the MSI Wind. That is to say, it’s got the same size, look, and specs, and was probably built by the same OEM for both Medion and MSI. But while the Medion Akoya Mini is set to drop in Germany and Austria next week, It might be a bit longer before you can find the MSI Wind in Germany.l
While MSI has promised US customers June 27th release date for the Wind notebook, a German shopper says he asked when the computer would be available in his country, and was told September. Now, obviously if Medion can sell the Akoya Mini, that means the actual computer manufacturer could put together a few units for MSI. But as MSI-Wind.de speculates, it’s possible that Medion got a limited exclusivity deal for a while… at least in Germany.
As for whether the MSI Wind will actually be available in the US tomorrow, I wish I knew. The release date has already been pushed back once, and I have yet to see a single retailer accepting pre-orders.
