The handheld device communicates with the iPOS system using the 802.11 standard for wireless LANs, and features a color touchscreen for ease of training and server use. "We are very excited to be previewing the MICROS iPOS solution for HOSTEC attendees," said Paul Armstrong, Executive Vice President, New Technologies, for MICROS Systems. "This dynamic solution has been created in strategic partnership with Vivonet, drawing on their superior Web-based technology. Unlike other ASP-hosted solutions, iPOS offers standalone redundancy - it will work with the Internet or without it. We feel that this feature will be very important to customers who have wanted the convenience of an Internet-based POS but have not wanted to risk an operational shutdown if their Internet connection goes offline."

Our dynamic drill-down capabilities will allow MICROS customers to access any information they need, whenever they need it. This competitive advantage allows users to act on trends right away, making adjustments to pricing, menu items or promotions as needed.
