also worth mentioning that there are many ways converting bitcoins to USD and other currencies. Existing large bitcoin exchanges utilize online wallet solutions such as Dwolla, Paxum, Liberty Reserve and some others that I don't remember atm.
Methods of acquiring bitcoin become easier, for instance one US based bitcoin exchange allow anyone to deposit cash through Chase and Wells Fargo branches anywhere in the US. - I'm a bit skeptical how long it can go on, but could also not find any reason how it could be shutdown easily. There are also Bitcoin ATMs being developed and smartphone solutions for people to be able to pay with bitcoins. All these news indicate that using bitcoins for average folk will become very easy with time.
