nice to hear such news but it is just a six-month trial, "at the end of which Isilines will evaluate the situation."
so if people will not pay with BTC then the company will stop accepting it  :(

I'm not a doom thinker at all, but I seriously think it will end exactly like that. Even if some people do use Bitcoin as the payment option, it will never come close to the level that it will satisfy them.
