15 years on the radio as a talk show host.... this subject has me so intrigued. How can I accept these coins in my surf shops and small pizza shop. I am not a hacker genius and I am just over 50 so I am not a hotshot techno young buck... but I have been a techno junkie for years. I would love to be the first guy in the islands to accept these at my retail shops. Am I a nut? Please help. As I said, I am not a computer genius, but if I put my mind to it I can learn most things.
Mahalo and Aloha.

I cant tell you what you should do but i can tell you what i would do.
I would buy a dedicated android devise for the store. Nothing expensive you could even get a super cheap 50 dollar model off ebay. Keep this tablet behind the register where your employees all have easy access.
On the tablet download the app called blockchain and set up an account.
When ever someone wants to buy a product ring them up like you normally would and take the total and copy it into the dollar field on preev.com. Preev.com will tell you how many bitcoins you need to ask the customer for.
next you will hit the little button that looks like a pile of coins in the top right of the screen and in the btc field put in the number that you got from preev.com. This will generate a qr code that the customer can scan. If you watch the block chain app you will see the coins come into the wallet almost instantly and as long as its the correct amount than you are done.
*note* if someone comes in and tries to buy 10,000 dollars worth of equipment wait for atleast 1 confirmation or two before you let him walk out of the store
