Medallion should be simple to use

[Thrak]

If I have to use my smartphone, or ship's TV or some other device to order my Bloody Mary then what advantage does the Medallion provide?

 

The Medallion would be cool if, sitting on the Promenade Deck Starboard, I could just say "Medallion, bring me a Bloody Mary". and a few minutes later the waiter would appear with a Bloody Mary.

 

Until then, it's just extra work and something I need to plan ahead on (i.e. Order the Bloody Mary on my TV in my room and then run down to the Promenade deck to meet the waiter.)

 

Just was watching the Unabomber thing on TV last night. Read his "Manifesto".... Interesting, isn't it HAL? "I'm sorry Dave - I can't do that"... ;p:D

 

Why not just go to the bar and order your drink?

It might be cool, but you would also probably be surprised at the things you actually get. Suppose your medallion heard a passer by talk about a bloody mary....
