I'm still trying to understand the Trezor.  My main conflict is with the price.  And then I'm also not sure of what it actually is.  This thread indicates a hardware wallet but then in other description it's called a "safe". 

So back to the price thing, I expect to pay upwards of $100 for a safe.  I also expect a safe to weigh several hundreds of pounds... but that's another topic.  So for a "wallet" I've never even bought one and if I did I don't think i'd pay more than 10-20 bucks. 

So look, it's an awesome gadget.  Security is a big deal with bitcoin.  But am I just looking at the wrong thing?   Is there a cost effective security solution for the average user?

Is there going to be a Trezor-lite?  The Trezor looks really awesome and I'm glad to see it pioneering bitcoin security.  Good luck.  No offense intended here.  Just trying to understand more options for making bitcoin easier to use and secure.  Thanks
