This might be a dumb question, but are you going to set up a way to use this for /bitcoin/ transactions too? Maybe some POS software that will allow you to pick "bitcoins" or an RFID tag?

Maybe.

Think about it, you own a coffee shop, some hipsters come in everyday to write their screenplay on their macbooks and pay in bitcoins using this card. Eventually you might ask, whats bitinstant? Then the next thing you know you can accept bitcoin in your shop using the bitinstant card without converting it to USD

Maybe 6-8 weeks.

Sure it's not "two weeks"? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Money_Pit

Saying that you don't trust someone because of their behavior is completely valid.

No, we said "possibly 6-8 weeks" originally. There are many factors that are in play that delay things.

Considering this is the first ever card of its kind, it's not as easy as pushing a button.

We never gave an official timeline (my comments on IRC were not official nor definite) and we cannot.

I was asking if there is a way to do bitcoin transactions using the card, not just btc-usd/whatever. Maybe like an RFID tag in the card. Maybe merchants would start accepting bitcoin directly if they saw enough people use the cards

Hmm, thats a good idea. I doubt MS or Visa would allow us to alter their cards, but maybe an RFID sticker?

Throw me any suggestions!

Never put yourself in a position to be dependent on an announced product being released on time.
