title: Can I program an ingenico/verifone terminal to do whatever I want?
body: <p>Ideally, I would connect an Ingenico/VeriFone terminal to the net via an Ethernet cable, the terminal will exclusively run a program that I wrote. This program would poll a webservice, beep when it detects some kind of info, wait for somebody's input, transmit said info back to the webservice, and print a ticket.</p>
  
  <p>Is this possible with terminals from Ingenico/VeriFone/someone else?</p>
  
  <p>I'm looking for the form factor/semi-ruggedness of said terminals. We don't need/want something bigger like an PC or laptop. </p>
