    I just read about a new software company that is helping hotels and their guests to integrate their own iPhone or iPod Touch directly into the hotels guest services. Guests can use their own device if they have one. If not, the hotel provides you a loaner iPod Touch upon arrival:

    "Once you’ve punched in your room number and security code, all of the hotel’s service offerings are but a click away. Straight from the device’s screen, you can order room service, set a wake up call, request your luggage, dry cleaning, or car (or if you’re going all out, a limo), request linens or toiletries, check your messages, or set your room to 'Do Not Disturb'. They also provide information about nearby nightlife, attractions, and shopping."

    One of the first hotels to provide the service is the Malibu Beach Inn. You can read more about the idea here.

    I thought this was pretty cool. Anyone else know of any good hi-tech hotels out there?
