This Android app is for people who regularly need to place, secure and monitor anchors for ships and boats. The developer’s description goes into much more detail than we can comprehend, not being seafaring types.
Here’s what Anchor Alert offers:
Unlike other anchor alarms, Anchor Alert allows you to project an anchor position in any direction and by any distance you want by simple point and click.
Anchor Alert uses Android’s built-in magnetic declination tables so an accurate position can be calculated any time, anywhere in the world. These tables are updated as required with the Android system so they will remain as up to date as your phone.

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.

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.
