I would like to point everyone's attention to the fact that the difficulty of buying bitcoins has to do with the current banking system and regulations, not with Bitcoin itself. If you could buy bitcoins by swiping your card, its price would currently be more like $100k, not $1k. Accepting Bitcoin and trading in Bitcoin are the easiest things in the world.

Accepting Bitcoin isn't quite that easy, if your customers are expecting instant real-time online fulfillment. Bitcoin 'merchant accounts' are showing up to make things easier than they were years ago, but there's still some code integration required on a website's backend to make it all happen.
