Of course this is not news so here it is in general chit-chat. Bitcoins rise is inevitable and proof once again that you can't stop an idea who's time has come!

“You put in US dollars and receive bitcoins back on your phone.”

It would have been bigger news if it were the other way around.

“co-founder of Lamassu, showed off the first bitcoin dispenser at last week’s Consumer Electronics Show”

Cool! I’ve always wondered what a bitcoin looked like! Are they going to have different denominations? If so, whose pictures will be embossed on the obverses? I propose Jon Von Neumann, J. Presper Eckert and John William Mauchly.

Reminds me of a classic scene from The Office:
Dwight: Very good. You have earned one Schrute buck.
Stanley: I don't want it.
Dwight: Then you have been deducted 50 Schrute bucks.
Stanley: Make it a hundred.
Dwight: Wh...don't you wanna earn Schrute bucks?
Stanley: No. In fact, I'll give you a billion Stanley nickels if you never talk to me again.
Dwight: What's the ratio of Stanley nickels to Schrute bucks?
Stanley: The same as the ratio of unicorns to leprechauns.

These machines are going to be literally “cash cows” for their owners when they add up their “commissions” for the low-overhead transactions.
