Google Wallet and iTunes will definitely be the best additions to Bitcoin, because it will open the possibility for everyone, worldwide to pay for apps on their smartphone. Having to use a credit card for this purpose is a major barrier for many users, so the option to pay with bitcoins would actually solve something.

Hello XXXX,
As BitCoin is an open-source, community driven project, I do not believe that Visa PlaySpan will ever support as they are quite tight with their security.
You never know what the future may bring, though!
Regards, Magius GameMaster MechWarrior® Online™
Bah.

I'm asking my team to seriously consider supporting it (this is my first post out of Newbie Jail, btw). I'm new to Bitcoin, but have enjoyed this recent price increase (it was $17 when I found out about it). I've been talking with the great folks in #bitcoin and reading what time will allow here and on Reddit. Fascinating stuff. We run a shopping cart software as a service ( http://www.foxycart.com) who's primary focus is serving developers. The Bitcoin community seems to have a lot of developers. We're hoping, if we do support it on our platform, it could create some buzz, drive some traffic and actually get people using Bitcoins for every day commerce. We're not in the 10's of thousands of stores (yet), but we do have more than a couple thousand using our system and, according to these guys, we're #8 out of 177 this month for fastest growing ecommerce technologies: http://trends.builtwith.com/shop/growthIf we can help move the needle a little bit and get every-day merchants thinking about Bitcoin, that's a win for everyone. So please keep an eye out for us and give us some love if we do launch Bitcoin support. Our first tiptoe in the water may involve bitpay support and who knows about the future. Side note: Thanks for being such an intelligent community. I like the "newbie jail" idea and I've been pleasantly impressed with the rational thought talking place here. Then again, maybe I just haven't been around long enough.

Or 'sink beneath'. I suggest that anyone who is serious and dedicated and may have some skilz focus mainly on the dev forums, but jack-offs poke there heads in there from time to time as well. I am lazy and more comfortable among the flotsam and jetsam and more typical plonkers of the community.

OP updated. Wow! Thanks! This should definitely get our team excited about adding support. Talking this over with my business partner, we did have some legal / liability concerns which I posted about here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=146164.msg1551802#msg1551802Feel free to add some thoughts in there as well. The answers so far have been pretty good. Seriously, this just made my day. Definitely cool to see this kind of support.
