Sony VAIO WA1

Sony WA1


Continuing the trend set by TerraTec's excellent-looking NOXON 2, another wireless internet radio has been announced by the good folk at Sony. Landing Stateside in the next few weeks for a cool $350, the WA1 can stream music wirelessly from your PC (VAIOs and non-VAIOs alike) anywhere in your house and works with SonicStage, iTunes and Windows Media Player alongside that internet radio functionality.

There's 128MB of onboard memory, which seems a little pointless to us as it's only around a CD's worth of songs, it supports ATRAC, MP3, WMA and AAC formats, has a four-hour battery life and can be hooked up to your hi-fi should you require a little more volume.

Remote controlled and with a touchscreen panel and five-line LCD, the specs aren't groundbreakingly impressive, but it is so very, very pretty. We'll keep you posted as to if and when it lands this side of the pond.
