Sony have announced a new digital photo frame with built-in WiFi b/g networking, the VAIO VGF-CP1U.  Centered around a 7-inch 800 x 480 display, the CP1U has 128MB of internal memory as well as a memory card reader compatible with Memory Stick, SD and CF and a USB port.  While obviously useful for showing digital photos, the CP1U can also display RSS feeds and play MP3s or SHOUTcast streaming radio through its built-in speakers.

The CP1U is able to simultaneously display photos from four Google Picasa web albums, automatically updating with the latest shots and with multiple transitions between them or, alternatively, a split-screen mode.  A scrolling RSS ticker-tape can be set up along the bottom of the screen, with headlines of interest displayed in the photo frame’s built-in Opera Lite browser.

A remote control is included, allowing control of slideshows, MP3 music and more.  The VAIO VGF-CP1U will be available in October, priced at $299.
