]]> Comment on iPhone applications by admin http://www.bradparsons.com/2009/12/iphone-applications/comment-page-1/#comment-3659 admin Tue, 08 Dec 2009 08:51:19 +0000 http://www.bradparsons.com/?p=348#comment-3659 Yes, competition becomes a factor, but I think catering to the iPhone user and limiting development costs through a cooperative approach outweighs the competition issue. It also comes down to what type of restaurant you're talking about - if exclusivity is tied in with the brand, a standalone iPhone application makes sense. Regardless, I think the first dozen restaurants to do it well will be ahead of restaurants that are left out.

What happens though when some are competing against each other? Could run into some potiential issues there.
