Winery Point-of-Sale on an iPhone

I was pondering our point-of-sale application and thinking about the upcoming Family Winemaker's tasting event. A winery could take a laptop with a broadband Internet card and could use our POS application to take orders in real-time. No more paper order forms with illegible handwriting. They could even attach a magnetic card reader to a USB port and swipe credit cards -- all quite cool.

Now, for those wineries worried about table space and wine spilling on your laptop, here's an even more high-tech idea -- use your iPhone as a point-of-sale terminal. Being web-based, the WineWeb point-of-sale application can run on an iPhone.

My appologies if this sounds like a sales pitch, but imagine the possibilities. The concept that point-of-sale equals tasting room is gone. Now a winery can sell wine, event reservations and wine clubs whereever they happen to be. Cool stuff to ponder.
