Thin Clients White Papers
Carphone Warehouse Deploys Wyse Thin Clients to Its Stores Nationwide
Overview Carphone Warehouse Group plc (CPW) is Europe's largest independent distributor of mobile phones and related services in Europe. In February 2000, CPW made the decision to overhaul the point of sale systems at its hundreds of retail outlets with better value and more effective technologies. A nation-wide rollout had begun which, at its peak, saw engineers each able to fit four outlets a day with Wyse terminals, monitors, cash drawers, receipt printers, barcode readers, and keyboards fitted with card readers. From the staff and customer perspective there may as well be a high-priced server a few feet away in the storeroom, such is the negligible latency between central application and in-store terminal.
