How one small company uses cameraphones

Reiter's Camera Phone Report picks up on an interesting article from Valley Advocate about how lots of small ideas can help companies, and leads with how the president of a furniture company — and her employees — have come up with lots of ideas about using camera phones.

"Leslie Fishbein, president of Kacey Fine Furniture replaced the drivers' cell phones with camera phones. That way, she figured, delivery personnel at the Denver retailer could take photographs at their destinations to show that they had not damaged a customer's walls or floors--or, if they did, document the problem instantly. Not especially revolutionary or groundbreaking, Fishbein knew, but clearly a step forward.

... The new devices had barely been distributed before the company's 205 employees began chiming in with all sorts of additional suggestions. Indeed, documenting delivery damage is now only one of the phones' many uses."
