Are you doing point-of-sale processing for anyone who is not appearing on the Real World Shops wiki?

Mike it is a webpage designed for use on a phone or tablet. Right now it's just a large screen version of our Mobile Checkout. But we will add new features to it soon. The banknotes are something we would like to support.  No extra scanner required!

So it avoids the whole Apple censorship issue for those merchants who wish to use Apple products as their POS.

The Casascius 1oz 10BTC Silver Round (w/ Gold B)
Is this an actual iPad app on the app store?  Or is it a web app, or one that requires a jail break?  This would be a very exciting breakthrough, given that the credit card machine is starting to get displaced by headphone jack credit card readers for mobile devices.  How convenient that iPad and iPhones already have a QR code scanner built in, and could also be made to accept paper bitcoins and bitcoin gift cards.
