An app designed to help Lithuanian Android owners pay their parking fees by premium SMS message, we think. It’s quite a clever idea, to be fair – it would appear Lithuanian parking meters are rather more ‘smart’ than ours.
Here’s the description:
“Parking payment for Lithuania. Available in Lithuanian and English language (change in settings), supporting Vilnius, Kaunas, Klaipeda, Trakai.”
It’s a shame Parking Lithuania also supports English language menus, else it’d be even more niche. Still pretty niche, though.
Motorola’s latest flagship dual-core Android monster is a massive, original powerhouse, that’s a big improvement on previous MOTOBLUR mobiles – but still isn’t a total winner.
A slim and glamorous phone from Sony Ericsson, with the sharpest display around. It’s no powerhouse and the screen’s not the biggest out there, but we don’t mind. Because it’s cute.
LG’s first glasses-free 3D phone is a heavy, fat monster, with a clever 3D effect that works rather well. As a smartphone, though, it’s heavy and underwhelming.
A very shiny thing from Sony Ericsson, with a 3.7″ screen and Android 2.3.3 inside. But is it exciting enough to win fans in today’s spec-obsessed market? Can man live on one core alone?
INQ’s Android phone is an interesting “boutique” piece of hardware, packed with unique interface customisations that go far beyond the headline Facebook integration. We like it a lot.

/ November 19, 2010It was a joke, Zoltan. If it wasn’t in English it’d be even more “niche” as its appeal would be further limited.
And from there the comedy arises.
