This is pretty huge. I'd be interested to know what overstock's strategy is for converting bitcoins back to fiat. I also wonder if there will be any tax implications here for purchases made in countries such as Norway that don't consider bitcoin real currency.

Bitcoin is automatically exchanged to USD for them by coinbase at the time of the transaction.
