Wireless Cash Registers
from the fun-for-the-whole-family dept
Electronic Boutique has installed wireless cash registers in their stores so sales people can check out customers from anywhere in the store. I've wondered why they never used these before, but I would think they may become more popular as we move closer and closer to that commercial where the guy just stuffs his pockets with products at a grocery store and walks through a detector of sorts that automatically charges him.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
