Ambur iPad Point of Sale System Gets a Major Update

Buffalo, NY (PRWEB) October 22, 2011

Ambur is a revolutionary, low cost, easy to use, point of sale app for Apple's iOS platform. The app is available for purchase using the App Store from any iOS device, such as an iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad.

Ambur changes the way businesses think about point of sale (POS) systems. It combines a user-friendly interface, embodying over 10 years of experience in the hospitality industry, with Apple's industry leading technology. Unlike other point of sale systems, pricing is affordable to small business owners, and there are no subscription fees. Moreover, the app does not depend on an internet connection to function - users truly own their data. Ambur is the first iPad POS system that doesn't require anything except an iPad and the app for a the most basic setup.

Ambur stores all the information locally on one iPad acting as the hub. Other iOS devices, like iPods and iPhones can then connect to the hub over Wi-Fi and wirelessly share data among all devices. This allows waiters and waitresses at restaurants to take orders right from the table and print them wirelessly to the kitchen, saving time in the hectic conditions of the hospitality industry. Along with traditional features offered by any standard point of sale system, Ambur also features completely integrated credit card processing, a powerful reservation system, advanced customer relationship management, and powerful financial analyzation features.

"Ambur changes the way businesses think about point of sale systems. With Apple's amazing iOS platform, we were able to create a powerful, easy to use, app at a fraction of the cost of traditional systems." said Ansar Khan, cofounder of Ambur.

IPEVO Releases Perch Stand for Apple's iPad

Sunnyvale, CA (PRWEB) November 15, 2011

IPEVO, Inc., a designer and maker of products for emerging Internet-driven behaviors, has announced the release of Perch, a stand for Apple's iPad tablet computer. The IPEVO Store (http://www.ipevo.com) will serve as the exclusive retailer for the product, which will be available for purchase starting immediately.

Perch is available in three different sizes according to height Small, Medium, and Large. For each size, users can choose from either iPad or iPad 2, and black or white. Products range in price $ 49.95 for the Small stand, $ 79.95 for the Medium stand, and $ 129.00 for the Large stand.

Stands are named after the different intended behaviors and environments for which they are designed. The Small (S), or Desktop model, is compact enough to fit on tabletops, kitchen countertops, bar counters, reception desks, and similar. The Desktop model can also be used along with a wireless keyboard for a laptop-style setup. The Medium (M), or Sofa model, is intended for sitting users, whether on a sofa, chair, or bed. The Large (L), or Podium model, is tall enough for standing users, and can be used as an "iPodium" for presentations and speeches.

Perch is created with a simple, modern style intended to visually complement the iPad. The base is made from steel to provide a sturdy foundation and is designed with flat, V-shaped feet. These feet can be slipped under sofa and beds or positioned at the corners of furniture to bring the iPad closer to the user. The pole (or leg) of the stand is constructed with a forged aluminum alloy which lends both lightweight portability and durability. And the iPad holder is made from a double-injected, heavy-duty plastic and soft silicon for device protection and stability. The iPad is installed via a gentle push into the ribbed lip of the holder, and may be easily removed with a special grip tab. A triangular cutout on the back of the holder further facilitates removal, such that the user may grasp the back of the iPad. Perch's design mounts the iPad in an ideal position for a wide range of user interactions.

Royce Hong, CEO and big head of design of IPEVO, commented on the thinking behind Perch: We knew that a 'one size fits all' approach would not work with Perch. The iPad has freed the user to take their computing most anywhere, and that's reflected with the three models of Perch. The S model is designed for tabletops, whether that means a business meeting, a one-on-one e-learning session, following a recipe in the kitchen, or watching a video on the coffee table. The M model is ideal for seated users in the living room, and the L model, in addition to its podium function, is great for interacting with iPads while standing up whether it is showrooms, museums, art galleries, or anyplace else a multimedia signboard is desired."

For all three sizes, a special dual-axis hinge allows the user to customize the viewing experience by changing tilt (for viewing angle) and rotation (for orientation). This is done with a twist of the hands, and no knobs or levers are required.

The Perch family of stands for iPad and iPad 2 will be available through IPEVO's online store at http://www.ipevo.com.

The Atlantic Releases a New, Enhanced iPad Application Created by RareWire

(PRWEB) July 30, 2011

RareWire, a provider of app creation solutions for the iPad, iPhone and other mobile devices, today announced that its client, The Atlantic, has launched a major upgrade to its iPad app -- The Atlantic Magazine: Digital Edition. Over the last year, RareWire has been The Atlantics partner in building its current magazine application, but The Atlantic wanted to increase the scope of that app.

Whether its long-form pieces in the magazine, daily news and analysis on our website, or Alan Taylors stunning collection of photos on the In Focus photography blog, The Atlantics new iPad application provides an enhanced reading and viewing experience no matter the type of content, said M. Scott Havens, Vice President, Digital Strategy and Operation. RareWire has been a fantastic partner throughout this process.

The Atlantic Magazine: Digital Edition app is a combination of current, real time stories updated dynamically from TheAtlantic.coms news feeds straight to the app as articles are published. Readers can also access current and recent back issues of The Atlantic magazine through a variety of ways: in-app purchase of an individual issue, as a subscription via Apples subscription service, or bundled with a readers existing print subscription of The Atlantic magazine.

Kirk Hasenzahl, President of RareWire, is also very excited about this app. The entire app consists of only 3000 lines of XML code. Anyone who is creating apps today will find that almost impossible to believe. To build this app any other way would take 10X the number of lines of code. The Atlantic app really shows off what is possible with RareWires software. When we launch our tools this fall, any web designer will be able to build a similar app in weeks or less with our App Creation Studio.

RareWire is not based on HTML5. RareWires App Creation Studio provides web designers the ability to leverage their existing skills and create true native apps, without having to be an Objective C, JavaScript, or Java programmer. The Atlantic app is built in XML, and is a combination of live news feeds, magazine issues with integration to current subscriber databases, live feeds from The Atlantics current ad servers, and analytics.

The Atlantic app is live today in the Apple app store. Additional upgrades to the iPad application will be released in the coming months.

RareWires App Creation Studio will be available on the market this fall for both iOS and Android, making it easy for anyone, from individuals to publishers to major corporations, to publish their content on tablet and mobile devices. The software has been used to build apps for CA Technologies, Ebony Magazine, West Point Military Academy, and many more. For more info, visit http://www.rarewire.com.
