Why do most of people like Smartphones? Probably because smartphones provide a lot of fun or maybe for deliver some important functionality, like Messengers, internet browsing, RSS, Password managers, e.t.c. But wait, we, I mean ordinary users of Sony Ericsson's non smarts, we all can use the same things, we can have messengers and RSS readers and browsers, and lot of other things that smartphones support. How? Glad you asked. Little Java applications gonna help us with that :)

Here are some of my favorite free Java applications that I use practically every day :)
