You can use the iPhone to check email, watch videos on the internet, play computer games, made amazingly, video chat with distant relatives, and countless other activities of the new millennium. And now you can use to drive nails or toilets.
Well, not really. But almost. Bloomberg says that the do-it-yourself chain Lowe's is to give the 42 000 employees, and our beloved gadgets help staff to help customers find and buy the hammer right, Taps, the color of the house painted, or different other elements.
The phones will be part of a system much like the manufacturer uses an Apple iPhone in its stores, the blog of The Next Web says. They will replace the old weapons and allow employees to scan Lowe working on the ground to check the product information, see (and show) relevant videos and hear lowes.com. Finally, the units will be equipped to deal with credit and debit card transactions and allowed to call, email and SMS.
If this continues, you may never hear the words "Reserve", a ringing sound system. Another object of value, lost cultural to new technologies.
The project is a response to the store iPhone dominant rival Lowe, who gave Motorola phones to its employees last year, reports Bloomberg.
Lowe has also launched an online tool called MyLowes that allow customers to store and organize manuals, warranties, paint colors, and other data, the news agency. In addition, the home improvement chain is launching 72 000 computer monitors, flat panel display, and the addition of Wi-Fi for buyers. Last month it launched the iPhone, iPad and a Spanish version of its website.
