Bluetooth ordering

tell 'em what you'd like before they so much as ask.

A great deal of time is spent queueing in food outlets even before you place an order, never mind during the preparation of said item. The wonders of bluetooth allow you to place your order as soon as you enter the shop, then they shout out your name when the order's ready. There's still a human conversation option for those of us who still value such things.

       Nice human touch, but I would rather have a bluetoothed avatar whisper in my ear that the order is ready.

       They have this at a McDonald's, but you use a telephone.
