I believe these are the long awaited credit card acceptors that Jim Gosnell is selling. The timer, if I remember right, was about 5-6 inches deep.
April 1st, 2009 – ICA Trade Show 2009

cwguy.com ICA best of show!
This product is coming soon and is just for MDB coin changers/coin mechs right now. But this cool new MEI product is the Cashflow Series 2000 VNR Vending Recycler. It has a flashy front bezel with leds on it and can also use standard non-flashy bezels. But the best feature is the bill recycler piece. The recycler module holds up to 30 bills then will spit them out for change instead of a bill breaker. Just think about having one of these in your entry unit and giving bills as change instead of change!

ICA trade show 2009
The show was packed this year and their seems to be some cool new items. I will show you some when I have a little more time, sorry.
Bette Midler show
So walking into the show I realized that there were metal detectors? Really? For Bette Midler? Was there an assassination atempt I missed in the news? But after the metal detector, there was “empty your pockets” and you have to “check your camera”! What! Check your camera? I did not even want to take a picture until then. So I took a picture.
The last picture shows the checked camera line.
ICA Trade show smaller?
I got a distributor pass from Trans-Mate so I was able to walk the floor early. (Thanks Trans-Mate; I am actually switching to their chemicals.). The floor seemed smaller than last year with less booths but we will have to wait on attendance. But it is always exciting to walk the floor!
