MSI Wind Laptop to Make Eee PC Cry, "Eeek!"

Check out the latest entrant in the UMPC race, the MSI Wind, which we missed at CeBIT earlier last week. Toting a 10-inch display, Intel Shelton'08 platform, with variable processor speeds from 1.0GHz - 1.6GHz; 2.5-inch HDD or SSD, 1GB RAM, a reported 7-hour battery life and running either Linux or Windows operating systems, it seems MSI's offering holds a lot of promise.

Delicious (and Not So Delicious) GMC PC Case Designs

Although we think CeBIT is largely a waste of convention center, one standout was Korean PC-case master GMC (no relation to America's own troubled automotive titan). Its sexiest case concept was by far the disc-shaped red-and-black beauty captured by Aving above. Even its simple name, "Pot," evokes a feeling of peace and ease, tinged with faint pangs of hunger. The other designs below are innovative and practical, though some suffered from designer overkill, not to mention an overwhelming reliance on the color green. [Aving USA; GMC]

ViDock Gfx Connects Your Laptop to a Whole Bunch of Displays

The ViDock Gfx is an Express Card/34 card and video box combo that can drive two external monitors. Nothing unusual there, except that the manufacturer claims this one is extremely fast and, quite frankly, seeing it in action in the photo above looked cool enough to be worthy of an entry in the Best Giz Readers' Computer Rigs contest. The ViDock Gfx will be available in April in 128- and 256-MByte flavors. Full press release after the jump.

iPhone to Get GPS Add-on, Courtesy of Nav N Go's iGO MyWay 8

At CeBIT this week, Nav N Go has been showing off its ghetto-looking iGO MyWay 8 for an "upcoming yet-to-be-announced iPhone GPS receiver." There's no more information beyond that, except that the software looks quite boring and doesn't seem to fully exploit the capabilities of multitouch. [Pocket-Lint]

AMD Finally Shows Off Its 45nm Processors

At CeBit today AMD finally showed off the fruits of its 45nm labors—one server and one desktop chip, a far cry from the 16 Intel launched with Penryn's debut back in January. But, given AMD's woes lately, on the technical and biznass fronts, we're just glad to see 'em. More »

T303 Is Sony Ericsson's Latest Petite Slider

The new Sony Ericsson T303 may not be the Xperia X1, but it looks like a tiny, simple slider phone that will fit in any pocket. Sony Ericsson says that it combines "premium finish and materials with a good feature-set to deliver style with substance," which is probably their own stylish but insubstantial way of saying "hey, it's made of black or chrome metal, it has a camera, Bluetooth and FM radio, a mirror glass display, and it works!"

Woosim Waterproof Printer Will Give you Tickets

Woomsim's upcoming 3-inch roll paper printer won't do anything for you, except probably give you your next speed limit ticket. But we like it because of its bright orange jacket and because it reminds us of Domokun, the Cyclops Version. Look at those teeth. That thing is hungry. For your money. [Red Ferrett and Aving]
