Of course, jetBlue has been doing this with pen and paper for years. No carts in the aisles in Y!

Virgin America's ordering system is probably the standard here. (ie: self service, why should the FA even have to ask me what I want?) In theory, this could be done with only software updates and minimal additional equipment on AVOD equipped planes, though I'd probably get annoyed at the people around me not knowing how to use it and pushing my head forward in the process.
