Good bundle

Pros: 1. Travel Nylon Bag--Easy to carry all parts in one pocket 2. Mini retractable optical mouse nice scroll and glows red from the wheel 3. Retractable 3.5mm connector web phone doubles as headphone 4. 4-Port USB2.0 Hub--Compact & lightweight design with data transfer speed up to 480mbps; Glows Red.
Cons: Kinda has a cheap feel to it and webphone thing has a retractable cable that is kinda short Mouse although precise is very small
Overall Review: It is a good little bundle pack and it you are getting a Netbook this carry pouch make it easy to carry and bring to coffee shops and use the mouse (the mouse is the main thing your paying for here) I needed a mouse since Netbooks have very small crampped touchpads for around $20 it comes in lower priced than most retailers but still seems to be a bit high for the quality. I did however get this in a combo savings with the purchase of a MSI Wind in I think it was a nice way to top it off. 4 out of 5 eggs missed 1 egg for price and quality
Garbage

Pros: -I got it free with the purchase of a Netbook -It's 16 GB thumbdrive. -My computer can read it........ [Ummm, That's pretty much it]
Cons: -SLOW AS HECK! - It requires you to disconnect it after nearly every write... -Oh did I mention *~SLOW AS HECK!!!~*
Overall Review: It claims it's USB 2.0 but feels like its USB 1.1 I tried to back up some music (11.2 gigs) took over 6 hours. C'mon my library is total of 55.4 gigs and it took my iPod just under a hour to fully sync. Something is wrong with that, right? I have a old Sandisk thumb drive thats about 5 years old, 512 mb (that was considered big back then) I have it on my car key chain and the thing it beat up to the point you need to hold it up to read, but it does. WAY FASTER Unless this is given to you free, stay away from this thing at all costs. Get a Sandisk Titanium drive it's way better its durable not made from cheap plastic like this one, the USB head retracts rather than capped off and most importantly IT READS AND WRITES AT USB SPEEDS. Sorry but this one get one egg and only because it was free.
Yo! Memory got cheap

Pros: It's memory and it's cheap
Cons: Ya got to open your laptop to put it in LOL
Overall Review: Buy it! Newegg, we floss'n homies shipping time was off da hook.
Best Bang For Your Buck!

Pros: WOW! -Fast for the size that it is -Comes with Restore disk, Driver disk and Restore image on HDD -Power Cable nice and compact -Webcam is a plus but it's not the best -Comes with a 160GB Western Digital Blue Scorpio HDD -Keyboard is nearly full size -Has a Underclock setting for better Battery life -Can run any OS really, even OSX and Windows 7 -Upgradable to 2 GB Memory at 667 mhz (read other thoughts to see how) -Price is set at just over $300 (Thanks Newegg) -Great Support from Wind forums and blogs MSI did it right by not selling this to other companies to have it re-badged and rather they are selling it directly and at a much lower cost The Pro's outweigh the cons big time. This is a Larger than most Netbook on the market and I did a lot of research and found this one to come out on top. Do your own research if you'd like Cnet and Youtube have a lot good videos and give you a good feel on how big it is and how it stacked up against the o
Cons: Not bad at all very minor things. -Mouse buttons small and stiff and touch pad kinda small leads to cramped hands after 3 hours -HDD is tad on the loud side, but fast Read/Write times -Would be better with a faster graphics processor. -Drops frames in True HD 720p try it on Youtube -Battery life is under 2 hours on low brightness and about 1.5 hours on full brightness (buying a 9 cell soon) -No DVD Dive (No Netbooks do anyway, but I use an external Samsung slim DVDR DL drive and works great) -Turbo mode can only be used while plugged in (See below about Turbo Mode) -Keboard although big, layout a bit weird The Fn key is on the outside of the Ctrl key so copy and paste can sometimes be tricky and the ,./ keys are kinda cramped *My only big con really* Built WiFi card is junk. Configured with Realtek Drivers works great out of the box with XP but a nightmare if you are going to change OS this is a Bigger problem OSX it has no native support you must buy new
Overall Review: This thing screams with more memory. The memory is upgradeable to 2GB but it has 1GB built in and so to upgrade you need only one 1GB stick PC2-5300 (Don't buy a 2GB stick it won't read it at all) Turbo mode is engaged buy hitting Fn and F10 the power light becomes orange when done. This can only be performed while connected from what I have read the CPU is underclocked to save on battery and safeguard against the Atom CPU. Turbo mode unleashes the full power of the small CPU. you can really tell it works by trying to watch a video on youtube and watching it in high-quality mode (make sure HQ not HD) and toggle the Turbo on-off you'll see it going from a bit choppy and dropping frames to smooth and no dropped frames. This Netbook is one of the best out there, the case is very well designed and well ventilated and the ability to to run multiple OS's really gives it a edge. Newegg Shipping was superfast had it ground shipped and in one day this thing came to my doorstep 5 out of 5
A MUST for any Netbook

Pros: I bought this drive along with my purchase of a MSI Wind. I choose this drive since it matched the color of the netbook and could run off USB power. A external disk drive is a must for any netbook. I used it to install Windows 7 and took about the same as my laptop with a built in drive (35 min). The burn speed is a tad slower than my notebook burner that is rated at the same 8X DVDR. Over all a nice slender design. I also imagine you can take the drive out and install it into a notebook if need to. This drive is Basically a notebook drive enclosed with a USB. And more plus is NERO 7 with Nerovison =)
Cons: As I said a tad slower than a built in 8X DVDR that come in notebooks but to be expected since data is being transfered over USB. The one USB cord for the drive is nice but it dose require two powered USB ports (you can't by-pass it by connection both to a mini usb hub or using a single USB cable Male to Mini). As for weight the drive is much lighter than a 5.25" drive but for a slim drive it is a bit on the heavy side. I also was considering other slim DVDR's with the ability to do Lightscribe, this one dosen't have it. not a deal breaker by anymeans but for a few extra bucks Newegg sells slim DVDR drive with it. just keep in mind if you like Lightscribe.
Overall Review: Overall 4 out of 5. Does the job well and for the price you can't go wrong. If you are looking to get a companion for a netbook you should get this drive to get the most from your dollar. I think this Samsung drive offers a good overall package. I will say it is not the smallest or the lightest drive around, but it makes the job easy when you are looking to burn, rip or watch a DVD or serves as a good host drive if you want to burn a copy. Good Job Newegg. Fast shipping =)
