Ruby on Rails

I've not heard of Mirah. Certainly like the idea though.

I have decided to drop the whole rails approach.

I had designed a rails app to act as a full point of sale
application.
It would be accessed over tablet pc browsers.

I have done some testing today accessing the web app via safari on the
ipad and the latency was terrible.
So much so, that it renders the product un-usable.

I am going to have to go full android I think.
Maybe have some backend to dump the data using some rest API.

Any advice for taking such a route?
