Krispy Kreme Implements Over 500 Intermec 740 Pocket PCs
http://www.intermec.com/eprise/main/Intermec/Content/About/NewsPages/pressRelease?section=about&pressID=540
"Krispy Kreme, of Winston-Salem, North Carolina, has selected Intermec Technologies Corp.�s 700 Series Color mobile computers to streamline its distribution process. Krispy Kreme has doubled its number of retail locations since 2001 and currently is opening its first stores outside North America. Intermec 740 Color mobile computers and PW40 workboard printers already are at work on more than 140 delivery routes, and the company expects to have more than 500 Intermec mobile computers in operation when deployment to all company-owned stores, including Canadian and U.K. locations, is completed in 2004. �We took advantage of the Pocket PC operating system to simplify the integration of the applications we developed to run on the 700 Series with Krispy Kreme�s back-office systems. We could focus on creating applications to make delivery, customer service and reconciliation operations easier because we could count on the mobile and legacy systems to work together,� said Velocitor President Rich Pacella."

I think it needs a "Hot Donuts Now" wallpaper theme.

How Ironic
As I sit at my desk - browsing this site, while installing some new apps for my 2215 and eating KK doughnuts with a cup of coffee.... What should appear? A STORY about PPC and KK, living together in harmony. I knew I was onto something...
It must be fate!!!

I read that heading as Krispy Kreme IMPLANTS Over 500 Intermec 740 Pocket PCs, instead of IMPLEMENTS Over 500 Intermec 740 Pocket PCs.
Krispy Kreme, the K.A.O.S. of the new millenium, has a synister plot to implant all of us with PPCs. Who wants to be the first cyborg surfer? :lol:

It's really nice to see PPC's being utilized for enterprise solutions for companies.
Intermec gears their products for this kind of usage.
Matter of fact, Schwan's home delivery service utilizes the Intermec 720 series along with their ( O'Neil's actually ) 781T portable printers on their routes.
Both units utilizing... Bluetooth connectivity! Cool! 8)
