if i may, my previous employer DIGI have also have their own OSS-based POS/Scale developed here (2000) in the RP (but only available abroad) which also used the same base technologies and was also ported to embedded Win32.

and Jijo have also helped Shopwise configure dual monitor support for our POS machines and a pure uclibc based (NO GCC) Debian Woody development box to allow the POS software and the embedded back office web server binaries to run on any linux distro without having to recompile.
Siemens also has a POS product called Calypso (written in C++), used by Carrefour (#2 in the world), that runs on Linux.
I think National Bookstore is also in the process of developing an in-house Linux based POS.
IBM's new version of GSA, General Store Applications (written in JAVA), also runs on Linux.
The biggest Linux POS implementation to date is U.S. retailer Home Depot (over 20,000 units deployed worldwide). I'm not sure which POS product they used...search yahoo or google for more information on their rollout.
