Designer fashion stores will be pleased to see the launch of the new W-Touch EPOS hardware – which is the nearest we have seen to an Apple style EPOS hardware terminal.

The flat edge-to-edge touch screen at 15″ is like an oversized tablet – though somewhat heavier if you cared to try to manage it in your palm.

EPOS Review of Aures Elios – Rating 4.5

Friday, June 24th, 2011

When we reviewed the original Elios about 18 months ago we had reservations about the fixed screen angle and the operating temperature of the CPU fitted.

However, with version 2 of the Elios, Aures made the screen fully tilting, upgraded the standard memory to 1Gb, and they’ve priced it exactly at the entry level budget most of our smaller independent retailers are working at.
