McDonald's and SK Telecom have formed a partnership that allows customers to order from their cellphone. On each table there is a RFID device that can be plugged in and enables customers to use a touch screen system to order from the menu. Once the meal is ready a message is send to the phone, while the payment is also automatically processed. This technology is still being tested in a limited number of venues but it could start a new trend. It will be interesting to see how far this application will reach and if competitors will follow.
