Hello,
I would REALLY like to purchase some bitcoin. There are lots of exchanges out there, and over a week ago, I began the registration process with Mt. Gox, but haven't heard nary a word in reply.

In the meantime, I've been exploring options as to how to get bitcoin to an exchange, once I'm properly registered, and what I'm finding is that none of them will accept a direct credit card payment, although you can get a prepaid credit card like OK PAY and make a purchase with that. I've never used a prepaid card like that before. I notice there seems to be a pricey fee to get the prepaid card - is this a one-time fee? Does the fee have to be paid every time you charge up your prepaid card?

Am I missing something here? Why is bitcoin so hard to buy through a direct purchase?
