Research.  I think you're expecting an answer of the "I used
open-source openPOS project, and it worked great for me", but
I suspect all that is premature.  What does POS mean to you?
What are your platform constraints?  Does your company have
expectations about how POS will work?  What access (CORBA?
RMI?  SOAP? ...) is there to the ERP?
