I personally don't see the need to have every purchase done with Bitcoin. Paper money, flawed as it is (and some people here seem to think Bitcoin is absolutely infallible), has its benefits.
That said, I think more online purchases, mainly those of smaller amounts (less than $100-ish) could definitely benefit from Bitcoin, if it had some kind of insurance.

Crip my name is Bryan, I have a site http://www.bitronictech.net/, I offer domain registration hosting and SSL. I do accept bitcoins, the payment gateway is up and running so for those who would like to pay for a domain in bitcoins, I'm your guy. Hope to see you soon. Also another cool opportunity out there for people who have a blog with some web traffic is coin url, they display an ad on a shortened url. The user sees an ad and then is redirected to the intended site or can skip the ad and they pay per impression. Dont know if it really pays out yet, but will see. Anyway hope to see some of you buying domain names using bitcoins!!! I'm pretty psyched about it.

The Full List of Domain Registrars Accepting Bitcoin is here:

perhaps a streamlined (dumbed down) bitcoin client or something to make it more adoptable for mainstream folk.

That would be FriendlyPay on iOS, as long as Apple doesn't make it walk the plank.

A router that sells wifi airtime for BTC ...

That is a really good idea. I wish i had the knowledge to make that happen.

The revolution will be monetized!
A router that sells wifi airtime for BTC at a good price. The market for this might be a small hotel or mall kiosk. They could just purchase the device and turn it on. I envision it running a client and after updating it begins selling. One can connect (this may be the tricky part) and send the fee before connecting to the net. Then the router opens up a connection for the length of time paid.
A full blown version could have a deposit button that uploads your coins to Mt.Gox at the end of the day, or even a feature that allows customers to purchase some of the coins in the router wallet.

already a lot of websites that converts bitcoins to $$.. what is the problem to do that and buy anything what you want...
Because $ payments involves lotsa hassle.

Privacy issues, security, dependent on evil companies, slow transactions, ridiculous banking fees. The whole point of Bitcoin is to AVOID $ and € like the plague.

Away on an extended break
I'll be looking into ways to replace paypal for my existing businesses in a perfectly seamless way.  Right now paypal handles my subscriptions and direct payments.  If I can replace paypal, have people pay with cash, card, or bitcoin, get paid in bitcoin, but still convert it to paypal quickly for bills with no hassle, I'd be set.  I dislike having to do all the conversions myself, repeatedly though.  None of it is automated enough for me.

Take a look at https://bit-pay.com/ , might be what you're looking for.

Spendbitcoins is probably the best for buying anything online with Bitcoins. Very easy to use.

Love love love Spendbitcoins. Used it many times now to convert to Amazon gift credit. The first time, Jeremy was being dicked around by Amazon, which caused a long conversion delay, so he sent me an additional, generous gift credit, for the inconvenience. With Amazon gift credit, you bank it in your account and it won't expire before you can spend it. If you're concerned about losing market value, or hacking if you don't keep an offline wallet, convert it! Can't wait until the conversions are instantly automated.

Bitcoin is a food group.
I personally would like to see a major Currency Exchange have an option to pay out/recieve Bitcoins for any other currency. Ex. See it in airports, malls, larger towns.
