Half of them aren't ready? What exactly do they think they need? All they need is a smartphone or a tablet and an internet connection.

1 or 2 % to accept bitcoin would be great already, still early stage.

Apparently the glass is half-empty.
Meanwhile, I'm expecting a courier in a few minutes with some goodies from Newegg paid for with BTC. Life goes on.

Study: Half of US Small Businesses Aren't Ready to Accept Bitcoin
http://www.coindesk.com/study-half-us-small-businesses-arent-ready-accept-bitcoin/
A new study suggests that consumers and businesses in the United States remain apprehensive about the prospect of using digital currency, as well as digital payment tools and platforms currently available on the market.
About two-thirds of consumer participants suggested that they are unlikely to use bitcoin or other digital currencies, with 49% specifying that they are “not likely at all”. 50% of business owners surveyed said their companies are not equipped to handle digital currency usage, though 19% said that they have taken steps to accept it.
