Mobile MICROS is powered by the Windows(R) Pocket PC platform from
Microsoft(R) and utilizes industry standard wireless network protocols. This robust software platform creates a user-friendly mobile interface. Mobile MICROS uses the Symbol Model 2846 handheld terminal from Symbol Technologies, available in color or monochrome displays and ruggedized specifically to endure the harsh environment of a restaurant. Mobile MICROS will also run on other POCKET PC hardware platforms such as the Compaq iPAQ.
Mike Fisher, Director of Information Technology of Six Continents Retail, praised MICROS for its products and service. "The Mobile MICROS hand-held terminals have been very successful for Alex's Cafe," he stated. "Mobile MICROS gives our operators the ability to provide superior service to our dining rooms and patios. The staff are quite pleased with them and already feel comfortable working with the entire MICROS POS system. At the management level, we appreciate the outstanding delivery and training that has been provided, and we look forward to the possibility of expanding our relationship into other Six Continents Retail brands."
"MICROS is proud of the relationship we have built with Six Continents Retail," said Frank Ward, Managing Director of MICROS-Fidelio UK. "By working closely with Six Continents Retail's project team, our US-based development team, and our German regional office, we have delivered a robust Mobile Ordering System that allows their operators to be more effective in servicing their guests. It is gratifying to know that Six Continents Retail is already reaping the benefits of this technology."
