We are opening up in Pocatello Idaho tomorrow.
See our demo video.

I've watched the vids on Skyhook, and heard only good things. I'm going to install one here in Indy.
I'm hoping they follow Texas' lead re: regs (since it is more like a Vending machine than an ATM).

I wish someone here in Manila, Philippines would get one of these babies and start running a physical exchange. That'd drive adoption here over the roof!
PS: I'm willing to contribute if anyone here wants to install one here in the Phils.

I've learned a little bit about the regulations, and quite honestly it all depends on the state. Some states are worse than others.
If you review that link that I posted earlier you can see how some states have very low requirements for this like Texas.

Too bad the regulations on these are insane if you want to put it anywhere public-y.
Ive watched several video demonstrations on youtube.
There is also a multi-currency crypt atm that accepts dozens of fiat currencies and dozens of crypto currencies. But it costs over $14k

I would like to buy one of these Skyhook open source ATM's and add at least Litecoin to it. I imagine that even if I couldn't tackle the task, there are a few developers here on bitcointalk that could handle that.

This is really cool...do we know when they are shipping? It looks pretty legitimate and if it turns out to be I am definitely buying one and setting one up at my workplace 
Also, are there any reviews or PR on this yet? This is the first time I've heard about it.

One thing that I would want improved on the skyhook atm, which would probably be fairly simple to do, is add Litecoin/USD exchanges too.
A multi-currency ATM I'm sure is just around the corner

I have been looking for a few different ATM's to sample.
I found this one tonight, which is a fully operational, opensource bitcoin ATM for under $1000 USD.

I am very interested in running a bitcoin atm to be able to introduce new users to bitcoin.
A representative from www.bitcoinatm.com sent me this link regarding the licensing requirements and the definition in court (Texas) of what a money transmitter is and is not.
See here;

"If the machine never involves a third party, and only facilitates a sale or purchase of Bitcoins by the machine’s operator directly with the customer, there is no money transmission…"
Im about ready to start. Are there any other good options available that I am not aware of, that are shipping in the immediate future?
