You can use it multiple times. It's just that the card can only be topped up once.

Interesting but 8% fees on reload seems a bit high. And not sure about the convenience of the "one-time use" thing.

Not really. 

It's typical chicken-egg problem. The problem of adoption can be simplified in 2 issues:
1. Not enough merchants accepting BTC
2. Not enough people willing to (or able to) spend BTC

We cannot do much on 1/. But Bitcoin-cards can help on 2/.

I agree that cryptocards cannot (or shouldn't) be a long term solution. But I prefer to live in a world with plenty of options to spend bitcoins than in a world with very limited Bitcoin-only solutions. Bitcoin-cards are a way to bootstrap Bitcoin use for common users.

These cards are the most moronic thing ever. Are totally AGAINST Bitcoin adoption and people still do not realize it...
