How will you get money on your new address? Transfer them? No luck there... (Or have I missed something?) And even with a new address you will probably reveal yourself with most transactions anyway.
Sure you can probably find a way but it will be a hassle and probably quite a hassle if you don't want to trust anyone. Because of the transaction history the only real purpose I've seen with bitcoins is the fact that you could mine them quite successfully and thus get an anonymous income, and with those mined bitcoins you could buy something that isn't tied to you, such as a VPN. That was a quite cool scenario with bitcoins in my eyes.
Sure there are some VPNs that allow you to snail-mail money to them but that is quite a hassle. But aside from that you pretty much have to use your card, and by that you reveal your identity. And given that the VPN service isn't subject to the same laws as your ISP using one could actually be even less anonymous than not using one at all.
Anyway, due to the transaction history that is the only scenario I've found bitcoins beneficial (and the reason for why I haven't even bothered to read up more on bitcoin). Would love to be wrong though.
