It's well known that POS also means "piece of shit".
I'm not sure how open it is for disruption, nor if it really is enough of a pain point to be worth replacing. Google has tried with Google Wallet, but who uses that?
One thing I have seen is that Girl Scouts are using some attachment on an iPhone to take credit cards at cookie sales. I'm not so sure that this would be useful in a restaurant setting or in a checkout process at a department store. It seems to me that these two use cases cover a large fraction of credit card purchases.
