If you are in a hurry, you can safely do this without waiting for another Trezor.  Setup a new Linux partition on the hard disk of a PC, install Electrum, and enter your recovery phrase.  Yes, this exposes you to potential keylogger malware, but having this happen on a fresh Linux install without root permission is as close to impossible as I can imagine.  And installing Ubuntu or Mint has become a very simple process, probably easier than Windows.
