Apple granted patent on wireless ordering "in the vicinity of an establishment"
- yagibear 15y agoWhy require that preferences be stored on the local server, rather than the wireless client?
- D_Drake 15y agoIs it just me or does this patent appear to be describing someone using a mouth to send a verbal order to an ear, which is processed by a brain, with the resulting sequence of actions being held in a thought. Doesn't NFC technology already cover this?
- chrisdew 15y agoThere's prior art - I ordered drinks by SMS in a cinema several years ago.
- callmeed 15y agoI wonder if this is a threat to things like Square's Card Case or even Google Wallet.
