So this is wallet, SEED generator, 2FA  authenticator, security key, encrypted storage,  SEED vault what else   rolled into one.
So to say the single point of the lost of everything valuable.
They suggest to replace Yubikey with this device. Are they kidding? To be on safe side one need to register a few securities keys on valuable  sites which accept authorization via such keys. I have three instances of Yubico registered on each site like gmail, proton, dropbox and other valuable ones.  Do they think think I would buy three instances of Passport Prime? Ridiculous, give me a break..

Personally, I'm very disappointed with this crypto rig.
We had known that the announcement was going to be today, yet you did not even include a link.  I have not seen anything of the actual announcement beyond your summary (and sure I am not going to proclaim that anything in your summary is misrepresenting anything, but still.. would be nice to see an actual link.
Sorry for that. I though it would be easy for everyone to find the relevant link. Here it is I would advocate to watch the video titled as watch keynote on this page to get better understanding of Passport Prime.

P.S. Added link to my previous post.

Thanks for those links, and Idid watch the 20-minute presentation at 1.5x.

Surely I cannot be opposed to any attempts to innovate, and hopefully their code is getting plenty of review, including if there might be early releases for alpha testers / developers.  I am not up to task for being any kind of a guinea pig since there seem to be quite a few innovations, and surely I share concerns about having so many features in one device.. supposedly easy to use and secure at the same time.  We likely know that there are so many companies that do want to attempt to put themselves as a one-stop shopping location, and with bitcoin we also likely know that there are a lot of user-interface kinds of concerns, so accomplishing user friendliness, security and privacy are laudable aspirations, if accomplishing all of those might be possible.
