Big Apple Worldwide releases new version of kiosk software

July 7, 2008

NEW YORK — Big Apple Worldwide Inc., a holding company focused on serving the hospitality, leisure and retail market, has announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Big Apple Wallcovering, has released the newest version of its "No More Books" software for e-commerce and retail sales.

According to a news release, the new software version puts Big Apple Wallcovering in a position to market its technology to retailers interested in selling products through self-service and online channels.

Licenses of the upgraded "No More Books" technology are being marketed to other home-dÃ©cor manufacturers and resellers. The new version has been modified to improve the shopping-cart operation and make more products available through a more powerful search engine.

The "No More Books" kiosk program was created to eliminate the need for heavy, expensive sample books that wallcovering manufacturers have used for years. Big Apple Wallcovering has placed the kiosks, which take up only 4 square feet of space, in retail outlets around the United States, selling wallcoverings from various manufacturers.

"We see this new technology as a potential revenue generator to drive our company forward,'" said Neal Jablon, president of Big Apple Worldwide Inc.
