For anyone who has a Trezor and has transferred their BTC to it in order to hold their private keys securely.
Trezor has just posted this article, Re: bitcoin-cash hard fork, which I found informative:

Great, thanks so much for the info.
I've downloaded Electrum and going to proceed to transfer my BTC out of Coinbase.
(have more questions now about Electrum wallet options ... but will find the right place on the forum to post)

So, I just finished reading the guide and all the posts over the last couple days.
Thanks for the guide and all the very helpful info !!!

So, from what I gather to date, BIP-91 is confirmed and will be activated, correct ?

I currently have BTC on Coinbase. I just logged into my account and Coinbase has a notice:
BTC Buys/Sells/Withdrawals will be Temporarily Disabled on July 31
Due to a potential fork of the bitcoin blockchain, all BTC buys/sells and withdrawals will be temporarily disabled beginning on July 31.


I do not have a wallet yet to move my BTC to yet, that would allow me to get my private keys.
I have also just purchased a Trezor, which will arrive by Aug. 28th
While waiting for the Trezor, I was going to create a paper wallet, once I transferred my BTC from Coinbase to a new Wallet and retrieved my private key(s).

Do I still have time to download and create a wallet, from posts on this thread, I was thinking either Electrum or Green Address (with double authentication).
I had also watched a video with Trace Mayer about a week ago and he recommended using Armory on top of bitcoin-core, but I don't think I have the time (or HDD space on my laptop) to download bitcoin-core and sync to the blockchain.

Confirmation/suggestions/recommendations would greatly appreciated !!
:-)

Thanks again for all the great info in the guide and all the posts, it's been quite a crash course/education for me over the past couple days.

regards
