IRAN and the rest of the OPEC may be adapting it as their official (and ONLY) currency for international transactions (buh bye dollar) if t stays steady, so i'd say the prospects are good.
Heh, that's a switch. Then they'd have to stop printing counterfeit Dollars and gear up for Euros. 
Lots of work because of this...
I'm finishing my accounting in Belgian Franks for the 2001 year and then I'll have to switch the program to Euro, that will be the most sensible part but will happen only end of this month.
Just finished all the price conversion for my products. Fax layouts for price offers also to adapt as well as the invoices. This last one was easy since some customers already switched to Euro since Jan 2001 (in their accounting).
Until now, everything's fine and I already got my first banknotes on the 1st at 01.00 am. I just find the notes of 5€ a bit small: they looks like Monopoly notes...

AFAIK the dollar is a bit easier to counterfeit then the euro as the euro uses the latest techniques in anti-counterfeiting and the dollaris basically some "special" green paint on some "special" paper.
ditto
Euro is the most protected bank note so far. Even the smallest notes are fully secured. IMO, I find them impressive to touch and sense in their special parts with some colors changing in function of the angle of sight (we already had this on our biggest BEF notes).

It even increased in value today to above $ 0.90 
. And it probably will get a bit higher if all goes well .

You guys seem pretty aware ...
Shame on me, I don't even know what the coins look like .......

I find the big notes (200 and 500) a bit big in size. But on the other side, who has them in his pocket regularly?
Besides that, I have the usual difficulties you also faced when making holidays: You want to pay and have to look at all coins carefully to find out which one to take. But it'll become better in a few weeks...

You mean the bills are bigger based off how much they are worth? That seems really funny to me.

.It's easier for blind people and pretty usual in Europe. At least in those countries I have been to.
I only have a US$ 1 bill but I couldn't find any markings at all. How do blind people tell the difference between the several bills, when they have all the same size?
I don't know about the Euro (still haven't got any) but the old German deutschmark bills had different sizes and additionally some small part with structured symbols to be able to feel what kind of bill it is.

heh you should see some of the old chinese currency.. friggen dollar bills the size of magazine page.
Same with american currency. The $ has gone through many different sizes.
The euro...kinda a neat concept...but also kinda wierd. I'd feel wierd if someone told me that next year, instead of dollars, I'd be payed in 'terra' or something like that.

Nooooo, not again!
You must be the 16th person to tell him that!
Look out! Don't piss out a penguin, they can be dangerous when angry...
OK, OK, OK. I know it.... yes.... I know it....
Please, let's not start it again.... I think I'll put a line under my sig "I know, my penguin looks like having a lightsaber dick" or so...
About messing with angry penguins: They are especially dangerous when holding a lightsaber.
