#2Looks interesting - glad to see some competition heating up in the POS space.
Any way to try out the service without fully signing up for an account? There are a few features I'd like to see if it has (that almost every other iPad POS lacks) and I don't want to create an account just to sandbox....

#4Cube certainly seems to have more dimensions than Square.
To be exact, six times as many dimensions.

#5I'm interested to see how big a share of the market the "artisan store or coffee shop" is.
And how are they able to offer 2.5%, while Intuit and Square charge 2.75%? You would think that for non-enterprise customers, they would charge more.

#6Gordon Ramsey has outfitted several restaurants on Kitchen Nightmares with iPhone-based (or other "new gen") POS systems, and I'm interested to see if they still use them.
There seems to be so much going on in this space, especially with the advent of low-cost, high-performance touch devices. I'm a little surprised I haven't heard of some massive win yet, like a major retailer transitioning. Kitchens are at least high-volume, I wonder if they're a good indicator.

You wouldn't know that to look at the text on their site, you'd think someone made a rectangle out of them by squishing the sides: https://www.getcube.com/point-of-sale

I just spoke to them on their website's livechat/Olark -- they're very responsive and helpful. Also the service is free so no reason not to play with it.

Square seems to be the go-to AFAIK.. they probably have the widest following in terms of absolute number of businesses adopting them. I could be wrong though.

I was recently (a few months ago) at Gordon Ramsey new restaurant in Vegas. They pull out iPads for your wine and beer selection. They would leave it at the table and you could look through the different wines, the regions they came from, how they were made, etc... Same with the beers. It was interesting, but honestly felt like a novelty. Super cumbersome and sort of gave you too much to read. Made the choice harder (for me and my party at least)...
