From UI and form factor, as well as the overall credibility of the project, I guess that it is probably a repurposed, very old Android smartphone (like Samsung Galaxy S3) with a stripped-down OS and a single application (wallet).
It wouldn't be the first Android-based hardware wallet, but at least other projects aren't based on off-the-shelf, outdated hardware (just a guess, but an educated one in my opinion..).
I bet opening this devices you will find antennas and all other stuff you would find in older smartphones.
But maybe developers are hiding written private keys there  Cheesy
Oh no please don't make me buy one just to open it and destroy the whole product through an honest review and pictures of the internals..
It would be a lot of fun, though. Maybe I could even throw in an 0-day (just reusing an n-day of the device that was used as base for the wallet, if my suspicion is right that it's an old smartphone) just to spice the review up a bit?

But it's just too damn expensive for a little fun post like that, I'm sorry. Wink
