ATM, please read the China forum FAQ. Much info is there including the answer to this question.

Agreed. I've arrived on the late (c. midnight) AA flight, with the ATMs broken and a long line for changing currency on one of my first visits to Beijing...a real pain to queue to change money for the taxi. It's worth taking a US$5 hit for piece of mind. But in general, best to use ATMs. Shame the BoA thing doesn't work anymore...
