I was thinking of that, but assuming you have one account in EUR
and the other, in, say US$, and initiate a transfer, do you get
the exchange course at the moment you initiated the transfer,
or by the time it's completed (2-3 days)? If it's the latter,
there's very little realtime about it.

What I was thinking about is removing the lag from transfers,
basically becoming your own paypal. Of course there are
fees if one has to resort to SWIFT/IBAN, so it would require 
cash transfer across border and operatives elsewhere, which
is a problem.
