Looks cool. It's way too expensive. I would probably go for Ledger Blue(when it comes) or Trezor than spending ~$220 on this. I like the idea. So I may create one myself. Wink

Edit:

I think the price kills it: $229 USD or 0.9630 BTC

Look over here at Mycelium Entropy that you can use on printers that print from USB: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=709936.0

I think the usb device for around .80 btc less is a better option if you have a comparable printer.  To me this wallet printer looks like a Raspberry Pi and small printer.  I would guess you could build your own that does same job for much much cheaper.

Mycelium Entropy is good for creating paper wallets. +1.

They have mentioned in their website that they are using Raspberry Pi. Tongue

I see your point that it's really expensive. But I think that you get something for the money: a printer, a PI and a cool device. Plus it's easier to print out paper wallets.

What I like to know is how they are generating the private keys.
