Since there are only going to be 22 million Bitcoins, won't it be annoying for the masses to deal with decimals? That could be a legitimate negative to common people.

I see what you are saying.

Sell me a loaf of bread.

Okay, pay 0.00000001 please.

Huh?

........
try again

Sell me a loaf of bread.
Okay, pay one satoski please.

A loaf of bread right now, at least in the U.S. is about .0025; not that hard. If you can't count that, you shouldn't be using Bitcoin.

It looks like Argentina buys twice as much from US as the US buys from Argentina. Purchases of "services" from the US, as opposed to hard goods, is way up as a percentage.

U.S. imports of private commercial services* (i.e., excluding military and government) were $1.7 billion in 2011 (latest data available), up 12.9% ($192 million) from 2010, and up 48% from 2000 level. The other private services (led by business, professional and technical services) and the travel categories led U.S. services imports from Argentina.

Some of those services could be transacted in bitcoin. It only takes the parties involved choosing to do so...

US travel agents could arrange partially bitcoin paid tours, hotels, excursions, etc in Argentina. Just one example.
