I look forward to putting these things in the vending machine.

Is anyone going to work on a web app for the vending machine, so people can pay for things coming out of it?


You mean this one?

Yeah I'll try to get it to a working state this weekend. I've been testing the latest Amazon Fire $40 tablet and I'm really impressed with it so I'm going to mount one on the vending machine as the user interface. If you never register it with Amazon and just install your .apk manually then it doesn't even show any ads and enabling developer mode is super easy.
