The PPC devices are just their walk-around devices. They do use Macs as their primary POS terminals/cash registers. The PPC devices are just their walk-around devices.

I have NEVER had an issue checking out in the Apple Store.....EVER. With that said, why must they use iPod Touch or iPhone's? They could just....GASP....use a Mac??? Chris…..yeah I agree with that.

I brought it up in a Symbol MC50 review nearly 2 years ago on another site. The sad thing about the web is that we forget things as quickly as they're posted! Apple's used these since they first opened their stores. The real question is how long before they convert to iPod Touch or iPhone based terminals. I'm not sure what Appleinsider was trying to say since their story rambled all over, but you certainly cant blame WinMo for the iPhone 3G problems!

My Dad has a Windows based one at work and he and several others figured out how to get to ANY website on the POS. Um.....WHY does your POS system need any acess to the web at all?? Oh and in case you want to know....it's JCPenny's who has this shite idea running on their POS system. It’s amazing to me how much POS systems suck now.
