PayMint lets you feed parking meters with your cellphone

Drivers in Coral Gables, Fla., are now testing out a new service called PayMint that lets them pay for parking using their cellphone instead of having to feed coins into parking meters (oh, the effort). To use the service, drivers dial in using the cellphones and input the number assigned to their parking spot — they are then simply billed for the parking fee on their credit card. But the big problem is that they have to dial in again when they leave the spot to stop the billing. C'mon guys, can't we toss a little GPS or something into the mix to solve that inconvenience?
