Barista’s Rejoice: iPhone Keeps Annoying Customers Away

Although Starbucks is still pulling a fast one on their regular WiFi customers, iPhone users get to enjoy free WiFi with your coffee. But apparently to developers like Phil Lu of Genoco, that’s not all the iPhone should be able to do at Starbucks.

Phil must have had his drink messed up one to many times by his local barista’s as it seems that his soon to be application, QuickOrder, would allow you to scribble away your order details on the cup. Using the same concept that iTunes on the iPhone does to provide you with instant downloads without pulling out your credit card time after time; QuickOrder will make your Iced Venti Passion Tea/Lemonade look just like one of the New Kids on the Block songs you downloaded.

With the ease that the iPhone introduces to most people’s daily lives, it wouldn’t be unreasonable to see something like this becoming what those credit card fast passes never were. I’ll stick with human interaction, but feel free to order your drink in the antisocial fashion.
