Definitely awesome 
. Ease of acquiring bitcoin is only second to merchant adoption in importance. Definitely a great step forward.

Definitely not anonymous but I wonder how much the machine costs and what kind commission bite the maker wants...
Biometric authentication sort of defeats the whole aspect of anonymity don't you think?
I doubt someone would use this regularly because the exchange price is quite a bit. You would likely use it if you were in the area and were low on cash or if you were traveling to Canada and did not bring canadian dollars.
Most Canadian places also accept US tender - for now.
I suspect that the quantity will drop after the first day excitement dies down.

One of these in every international airport would be wonderful though.

I expected a much higher amount than $10k. At least an order of magnitude higher. It seems a majority are dabbling in small amounts less than one bitcoin.
I guess it would look weird to be regularly seen stuffing $3000 in the machine, as I would have done if this were closer to where I live.

Any news about when we're going to have one of this ATM in Europe?

Operated by Las Vegas-based Robocoin and Vancouver-based Bitcoiniacs, the ATM scans your palm and allows you to exchange cash for Bitcoin, or do the reverse. Customers can make up to $3,000 worth of Bitcoin exchanges per day.
