Dad’s Cab is a fun filled software which enables you to mock act as a cabbie and charge your kids for a drive be it to the soccer practice or to their recitals :)

Start the application , the flag falls at Pound Sterling 2.20 and adds up while you drive

Kids made a mess of your car , continuous nagging about when they will reach their destination or simply made you wait , there are a whole lot of extras you can slap on to their bill

Once the Journey is completed , the total is given along with fun ways for repayment from the kids ,  How about publicly hug and kiss , discuss their day at school or introduce you to their friends -  Kids are same everywhere be they in UK or in Pakistan ( I know , I have 2 of them )  and these payment options apply to them all . With each payment option their outstading falls all the way to zero -  sorry no option for tips that you have to workout with your kids

Dad’s Cab also provides an option to link the software with one week trial of Nokia Navigation , alas it’s not usable in Pakistan so I didn’t gave it a try

    Dad’s Car is one of the most innovative apps we have seen so far for the symbian fifth edition platform. Not only is it easy to use it makes good use of GPS and encourages kids to behave in an acceptable manner.
