People who mix coffee while carrying their iPhones can now have an easier time paying for their orders as Starbucks unveils a new iPhone app called the Starbucks Card Mobile app for the iPhone. The new app allows customers to sync their prepaid Starbucks cards, being able to check and add credits in case they are about to use up their credit. For the coffee addicts, the app can also pick up the tab for your next order.

Users can select that “payment trial” function which will display the QR code. The iPhone is then scanned and the cost will be automatically deducted from the balance afterwards. People even get a bonus as they will get free coffee refills and 2 hours of free WiFi access.

Navigation has been made easier with this new software made for Palm Pre devices. The new software is the TealOS which incorporates a lot of the navigation and UI components of Palm’s new WebOS.
