Mobile Apps
Mobile applications are becoming very very popular. It's quite easy to understand why...
Why?
Convenience- Easy Easy Easy
Easy for the customer to pay/shop/gain info
Easy for the business to process payments/track inventory/etc etc
Easy to get? Not so much, but still not as hard as you think.
While I don't think a startup should spend 1,000's investing into an app... I do think if you can get one reasonably well done, for a reasonable price it is a no-brainer.
You have to find a company or a programmer that will offer you what you need. http://www.getappsdone.com/
sites like get apps done will help you with this. Also ask around in your community you might find a college or even highschool kid that programs games for these devices and could transfer those skills to business app development.
One word of caution is to be careful with what kind of information you collect or allow access to through the app. Information security could be an extremely big issue if an application has private confidential information.
