Two of my local stores made this switch a long time ago. The system seems much faster for them; maybe it's more customized to Apple Retail than the old CE devices. They also didn't have a card reader or bar code scanner on their devices so they had to key in item numbers, but all things considered, it went seriously fast.

It was only a matter of time before Apple rolled out their own checkout system for the remotes.

I still think that the new system is quite possibly the best experience ever. It's a bit confusing that the stores dont' have a "register," but it's SO SO SO fast. I never pay cash for anything so I love it and now they can even take cash! What more could you want?
