HSI Revolutionizes Handheld POS with Apple's iPod Touch
Hospitality Solutions International (HSI), a division of MICROS Systems, Inc., a provider of information technology solutions for the hospitality industry, announces that the Profit Series Point-of-Sale application is available for use with the Apple iPod touch as an innovative and inexpensive alternative to traditional handheld POS devices.
HSI redefines the model of mobile POS with the addition of the iPod touch as a practical solution to make handheld and mobile POS an affordable reality for the hospitality industry. The user-friendly iPod touch is a technology accepted world-wide and the perfect mobile companion for Profit Series point of sale software. At 4.05 ounces, the iPod touch is light-weight, yet its stainless steel enclosure makes it a durable device able to withstand the harsh hospitality environment, and it will operate the Profit Series POS application for up to 6 hours on a single charge.
The large 3.5 inch display allows viewing of full Profit Series POS screens. Apple's Multi-Touch touchscreen interface enables users to easily zoom in to "touch" the appropriate selections. Screens may be viewed in portrait or landscape and automatically change the content of the display when rotated. So immediately the Profit Series POS screens are shown in the entire width of the display. Guest checks are opened, menu items are selected, and orders are sent to the kitchen in the same fashion as standard POS terminals. Since the Apple iPod Touch handheld uses the same interfaces and screens as a standard POS terminal, additional training for your servers is not necessary.
