Blue Sky Traders is really professional and easy IF you have a Bank of America by you. If not you are out of luck with them.

Newbie here as well so please excuse my ignorance.  I have tried three times to fund a Mt Gox account through Bitinstant, but it freezes for 30 minutes each time I am at the final screen to print the transaction info.  Does anyone know what is going on?  I get the quote, choose payment center and Click "Create Payment Slip", and it dies there. Any ideas?

Ok, another question- but still regarding bitinstant if anyone is paying attention.  I have read in some other threads I can just send cash through bitinstant by cvs, to a bitcoin wallet and I will have bitcoins?  I was under the impression you have to buy them somewhere after finding a place to deposit money.  SO i guess the real question is, does bitinstant turn cash into bitcoin if you have a bitcoin address?  Thanks!
