There's lots of talk about the survival of the Square reader under heavy demand, certainly another more durable reader needs to be produced.

However is the market for square at this price point really for anything above one or maybe two point of sales?

Using this setup in some bar environments would require some hardware to protect the iPad, I've worked looking after hardware in busy student union bars where the staff just destroy the tills with spillages.

My impression of the earlier square products for POS were that it's intended for giving the small business something, not for running your local branch of Starbucks.
