IMO Ripple is inherently flawed with it's instant creation and centralization of money supply. Proxying transactions doesn't add much, if any, benefit to today's marketplace -- we already have services to exchange with (albeit with high fees).

You can ignore their money supply - you just need 300xrp to start with and then you can make hundreds of thousands of transactions in whichever currency you choose.
It's potentially an open source p2p distributed network for moving funds (potentially being the key word)

So it would seem from what I am reading that Ripples are going to be more stable than Bitcoin...anyone think there is going to be a mass selloff/trade of Bitcoin for Ripples?

Stable currencies do not increase in value the way Bitcoin has over the last several months, which increases the chances of a crash in its value. One of the points made in the Economist article I cited above is that, if Ripple gains traction, it would likely cause a big drop in Bitcoin value.
