Top 3 smart phones and what that means?

With the IPhones popularity soaring and Blackberries dominance. Its no wonder todays business need a mobile solution that allows its customers full access. This society is increasingly becoming mobile and its not just the "geeks" that are the early adopters anymore.....

As a service business that promises convenience. We need to provide a way for members to make reservations as quick as possible.

Example: You are at work in downtown miami and the parking garage you park at has limited spots in the first place and you really don't want to waste the gas or move your car. You don't have access to the internet because you are not physically in your office. Now imagine you take out your IPhone tap on the Verde logo on your main screen and up pops a Google map with a pin that represents where you are. You tap "locate" at the bottom of the screen and withing 10-15 seconds the map is populated with Verde pick up/drop off locations within 3 blocks of your present location. You tap the location closest to you and find 3 Vespa's are available. You tap reserve ( a default 1-hr usage) and the reservation system sends a signal to the location, that you are on your way to pick up a Vespa. Once your reservation is confirmed your off to the location. Once there you swipe you key chain fob and the Vespa is activated! Hop on push go! And you are off to run errands. Once you are done running your errands park the Vespa at the location you got it from and swipe your key chain fob in front of the Vespa and the system knows you are done. The system will bill you for the hour you used it and the best part, you gas was paid for by the service!

This is an example of mobile solutions that here at Grow Verde we feel are mandatory to our success.

We have similar mobile reservation systems in the works for other platforms.

Let us know what you think and how you think we could improve this process before we finish writting code for this application.
