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

The price of the Trezor is the market price, luckily for you and everybody else, because that ensures that everyone can have one, if they want it sufficiently much.

The trezor team has made the best hardware wallet, the safest and easiest to use in a safe manner.

They took great risk in building it and make both hardware and software open source. A competitor can create a clone very easily now, the only thing they don't have is the name and reputation.

Your choice is easy, either use a software wallet that is capable of having offline keys and use a separate PC to run the offline part, fumbling with copying the transactions to and fro with a memory stick, or buy the trezor at the price it is offered for.

Yeah, I just don't think folks are seeing the big picture of mass adoption. Just needs to be perceived more in relative terms and I'm hopeful that someone will understand that. Maybe even the Trezor brand.
