Last week, we schooled which Apple would be revamping a little US sell stores, together with a latest iPod touch-based point-of-sale (POS) system. A latest scanner appendage allows Apple to reinstate the old Windows CE-based sales handhelds.

Gary Allen of ifoAppleStore has since AppleInsider an disdainful look at the thing, and it’s flattering cool (that is, if sell hardware is your bag). It’s an iPod hold with a captivating ribbon reader, a barcode scanner and Apple’s exclusive payment-processing software. The iPod rests inside what AppleInsider calls a “slip-on shell” which plugs in to the wharf connector; it includes the own battery to energy the dual scanning peripherals.

Apple Store employees will operate the inclination to accept purchases done with credit cards, withdraw cards and cash; they can even have earnings and turn on a latest iPhone.

It looks similar to a crafty device. If you see one in the store (or if you operate one), discuss it us what you can.
