Welcome to the August edition of the KIS newsletter. Since our prior edition we've had nothing but good news.
In May 2004 we picked up seven awards at the industry KioskCom show held in Las Vegas. We also were awarded the 2004
Vertical Market Penetration Leadership award by Frost and Sullivan, a very prestigious research firm.
Whether it be POS COE terminals, Security biometric stations, Assisted Shopping, Music Download, Photo kiosks,
Bill Payment, Ticketing,
HR Employees to Job Applications and Gaming, KIS can help equip your company for unattended self-service.
