Personally I expect if "normals" are to use bitcoins, it will probably be structured with financial institution(s) holding the BTC much like a bank holds USD. As we move further away from cash, ordinary folk could very easily just have a BTC debit card, and never worry about bitcoin wallets and bitcoin clients.

But why the fuck would they bother?
In an attempt to get free of the manipulation of the USD by the Fed, for example. (Whether that is wise is another debate)
