The other question is whether they'll put up with the additional fee that's going to be tacked on from apple for the privilege. I certainly wouldn't expect to see this in smaller businesses simply because of that fee, there's a number of small business already that would far prefer you do a debit card than a credit card transaction just because of the larger charge with a credit card. (Personally, I feel this is really a large issue with *all* of the digital wallet type systems.)
