Yes.
I don't get it: all I can do is place a gateway. I don't have a gateway.

That could be interesting. I hope their system supports unicode.
Why are you specifically asking for unicode?

"If Bitcoin succeeds, it is likely that PayPal and Western Union would be removed from the marketplace. The Federal Reserve (and every central bank) would be made redundant. "Disruptive technology" is thus an understatement. "
Remove this, it will probably not happen in 30-40 years anyway if ever. Its just unnecessary to create enemies, and people are afraid of using technology that threatens the society the are used to and believe, works.

Yes. Serious folks who want to do business and develop products keep their ideology to themselves and friends. Statements like this, and attempts to have users directly pay for infrastructure of a secretive, closed-source project, make me very cautious about the card.
At this point I consider it vaporware, and possibly a scam where government-hating sheep are lured in by strong statements like the one above.
I would love to be proven wrong on this one ASAP, and might consider buying a dongle then.
Big macs and quarter pounders come from the same store...

No, proprietary.
This. Publish the source code (GPL, AGPL, BSD, MIT,...?) and I will buy one (card + usb transmitter)…

No brainer. I'm in.
I'm having doubts about this project moving forward. There are already several people working on much simpler smartcard schemes that seem much simpler and use common components.
Heh, if you had seen the size of their team and how much money is being put into it, I think your doubts would disappear lol.

but the requirement for the entire world to build infrastructure around it instead of using what's already there is not only lazy, it's downright unimaginative and asinine.
I guess that's what many would say about Bitcoin vs. the traditional banking system. I'm sure Satoshi was just too lazy to open up a Paypal account 
may i use this in my sig?
best bitcoin cite ever
Sure, go ahead!
