SCKT....NCR Integrates Socket Barcode Scanner Into Apple(R) iPad(R) Based Point of Sale System

The CEO of Square just gave a presentation where he sees a huge percentage of business turning to iPads in the next two years as a point of sale system. Not just for the savings, but also for the use of tablets for customer interaction, inventory, and mobile integration. http://www.mactrast.com/2012/09/squares-rabois-retailers-will-replace-registers-with-ipads-within-18-months/

So far Socket has beat out the competition (and that includes Motorola) to integrate their barcode scanners in Lightspeed, NCR, ShopKeep, Registroid, Padalog point of sale systems. It's only going to grow. If Socket is good enough for NCR (a $3.8B company) and Lightspeed (backed by $30M from one of the most successful venture capitalist funds there is), then their scanner can get into anyone's systems.

As for the Somo side of the business---nothing to really report there, but I hear good things are coming.
