That "basic computer" you speak...@Allyson<br />That "basic computer" you speak of DOES exist! It's called the iPad. Not only is it a functional alternative to a laptop, but its ease of use has proven as a gateway for the technologically un-inclined into the "modern world".<br /><br />Regarding EnableTable, they seem to be in the initial stages of product development and placement. I would venture out to say that this is one company's IPO I would look forward to!<br /><br />Cheers,Ray M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08132884839642469752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3057374081700352152.post-38995158306259383282011-03-28T01:09:30.789-04:002011-03-28T01:09:30.789-04:00Enabletable?

Do you know if there is a list of restaurants participating and what coupons/discounts are offered on the next visit. I tried to locate more information but was unsuccessful. Its incredible to see how technology has taken over the world. It's a new era. My grandfather is 87 and trying to learn how to use my my Macbook Pro! If Apple could develop a basic computer that can be used by and marketed to the elderly they could enter a whole new market!Allysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14489954243753670000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3057374081700352152.post-57774966614424722132011-02-27T21:47:16.400-05:002011-02-27T21:47:16.400-05:00Hi Ray, I can completely relate to your blog post....Hi Ray, I can completely relate to your blog post. My family for years has kept one drawer in the kitchen just for takeout menus, and our refrigerator is full of restaurant magnets. Although I prefer to order food via the internet because it can be faster my parents still prefer to pull out a menu form the kitchen drawer and make their orders over the phone. I understand why my parents prefer to an order over the phone and that’s because sometimes placing an order online can take longer. The reasons why it might take longer are if you’re a first time user and have to register to the website, you press the back bottom by accident which deletes all your information, the internet goes out unexpectedly and younger people sometimes don’t have a credit card to pay for the order. I personally have had everything I have just stated happen to me which can be a little irritating when you’re trying to do something faster. So I have to admit that form time to time I prefer to just taking that old restaurant menu out and calling over the phone. By the way your post has seriously mad me hungry. :)S.Menendezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05182273287498481353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3057374081700352152.post-33970505970311671562011-02-27T21:28:41.808-05:002011-02-27T21:28:41.808-05:00I couldn't help laughing when reading this pos...I couldn't help laughing when reading this post. Does the city even delivers the yellow pages anymore? Today I order pizza and not only I was able to search on the Internet for special deals and nearby locations, but I was also able to order my pizza on my phone. I got to pick the ingredients I wanted and pay it on my phone as well. They delivered 35 minutes later and I did not have to talk t anyone during the whole process. This new way of using the Internet is very useful for consumers. In the other hand, people's interactive communication is decreasing with the Internet. Just like I didn't have to talk to anyone when I order my pizza, many other companies will soon start with same concept.Paola Ramirezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14946564683719132630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3057374081700352152.post-7117004768306469092011-02-27T21:01:17.340-05:002011-02-27T21:01:17.340-05:00I myself can relate to the take out Friday!

Depending on the location I am, and what I am craving as well as the others I am with (Desire development). I recognize I am hungry and we then decide what exactly we want to eat. Now it is much easier than before. In a moment I can separate things by types of foods, by location, etc with my cell phone. Technology has made our process a smother, more detailed process . It's amazing! A couple days ago I "yelped" the nearest Mexican restaurant and it said if I checked-in at the location, I would get 10% off!<br /><br />Amazing!Aileen Validohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03049878649884441446noreply@blogger.com
