After digging around on the net, it looked like it was possible to load non-amazon software on these, it just took a little bit of jiggling. I didn’t think buying a stack of iPads was going to make sense, and el cheapo tablets from ebay and amazon are sketchy.ģ Kindle Fires being configured as registration terminalsI saw a deal come across Woot for Amazon Fire HD 7″ Tablets for… $33. The only drawback was, I needed a series of tablets that were roughly the same (bringing batches of workstations that are all different is a sure way to headaches).
Think of scanning a boarding pass when boarding an airplane. The best part was the Eventbrite Organizer, a mobile app for IOS and Android that basically gave you a live dashboard, but also allowed super-fast checkins using a QR code scan. I’d helped out at a different event about a year ago, and was impressed with the tools Eventbrite offered. I’m helping an event that’s using EventBrite for registration services. So could you put together a registration environment using some cheap tablets? Sure. The new hotness are small, inexpensive tablets. I originally designed registration to use cheap, network bootable PC’s, but that was so 15 years ago. Even though I’m not working on CONGO as much anymore, I’m still helping out with registration at a couple events, and I’m always looking for better tools and gear to use.
