Engadget have been lucky enough to get some hands-on time with SPRXmobile’s augmented reality browser for Android, and they seem impressed.

The software looks rock-solid and the initial data layers — ATMs, social joints like cafes and clubs, and job listings — appear fully populated and thus, useful. The ATM and cafe/club layers (or layars) are definitely helpful for serendipitous discovery though we’re still scratching our heads over the job search layar.

Layar is currently only available in the Netherlands, but is expected to expand to the US, Germany, and UK markets later this year.
