Floor Sketch

And speaking of PocketPC, at boys breakfast this morning, a tradesman mate of mine was explaining how he measures up buildings using a laser.

The laser bluetooth’s to his PocketPC, sketching out a map of the floor plan!  He can then send that to the carpet manufacturer who sends back the cut design and costs.

I love it when I hear about technology crossing into the real world.

    Hi,

    did he say which device he was using it on? iphone or Android?

    I have another client that needs a copy. I know the Carpet One uses it on Windows Mobile.

    thanks
